Details

   Nonviolent Communication is a practical and learnable process for communicating with empathy, honesty, confidence and compassion. Nonviolent Communication supports creating a quality of connection with oneself and others in which everyone's needs are equally valued. This allows families to create strategies and meaningful solutions that resolve issues and deepen relationships in all aspects of life.

Unique learning tool:
You will practice the context and learning shared in class in a very unique setting: You will be matched with a Learning Partner (LP). With your LP you will discuss, debrief your fieldwork, get a deeper understanding of the concepts and consciousness and, most importantly, experience a sense of contribution, acceptance, accountability, mutuality, etc.
We know of LP connections so satisfying that they have been going on for years beyond the classes.

We will be using Sura Hart and Victoria KIndle's book: Respectful Parents, Respectful Kids.
