Restoring Peace
This class occurs virtually on Saturday, October 19, from 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. ‘Restoring Peace’ utilizes the power of empathy to strengthen relationships, while at the same time teaching parents to hold their children accountable for their actions. After this class, parents will have a solid understanding of the basics of Restorative Practices and how and why to incorporate them into their parenting. At The Conflict Center, we help build a community of support, where parenting challenges are normalized and parents can provide each other with confidence and shared learning experiences.

In this accelerated social-emotional course for youth, participants will learn how to make healthy decisions, and identify emotions – especially anger – while learning to manage them in healthy, effective ways.

Who We Are
The Conflict Center provides practical skills and training to address everyday conflict through relationship building. We are steadfastly committed to being at the center of nonviolence in families, schools, workplaces and communities.
In 1987, Liz Loescher dreamed up the idea for The Conflict Center in her basement. It has since grown into a long-standing nonprofit in Denver’s Sunnyside neighborhood.
