Peace and Justice Students Learn about Alternatives to Violence Project

Rick Grier Reynolds, who created the Global Peace and Justice course at WFS, returned today with Brian Winward, a returned citizen and long-time AVP facilitator, to discuss the Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) with 9th grade students.
They explored themes of transformation, change, and the importance of resolving conflicts peacefully. The AVP workshops aim to equip people with the tools and skills necessary to navigate challenging situations without resorting to violence. Their visit highlighted how we can make positive changes in the world through guiding principles such as patience, caring for others, caring for ourselves, expecting the best from others, and thinking before acting.
