Training and resources

At The Peace Center, we know that peace doesn’t happen by accident — it grows when people have the skills to listen deeply, speak honestly, repair harm, and work together. Our trainings and resources help individuals and communities learn these skills in ways that are practical, relational, and transformative.


Trainings That Build Capacity

Our workshops are designed for anyone who wants to strengthen their ability to navigate conflict and build community. Whether you’re a teacher trying to support students, a parent navigating big feelings at home, or a congregation seeking healthier ways to communicate, our trainings offer tools that make a difference.

Participants learn how to:

  • lead restorative circles,
  • respond to harm with accountability and care,
  • create environments where everyone feels seen and valued,
  • support children and youth in developing emotional resilience,
  • and build systems that promote fairness, belonging, and trust.

Resources That Support Real‑World Practice

We provide practical materials that help you bring restorative practices into your everyday life:

  • circle outlines and conversation prompts,
  • conflict resolution guides,
  • trauma‑informed strategies,
  • youth curriculum and activity plans,
  • and community engagement tools.

Our goal is simple: to help people practice peace in ways that strengthen families, schools, congregations, and neighborhoods.
