From wrcdv.org/programs ↗About this program
A core component of our programming for children is peace education, in which children explore topics such as self-awareness, acceptance, tolerance, cooperation and compassion.
By participating in group and individual sessions, children learn how to manage feelings of anger and frustration, discuss their fears and practice peaceful conflict resolution techniques. Children also learn that the violence they witnessed and/or experienced is not their fault.
