Topic Title: Effective Communication & De-escalation Strategies

RSCCM Bio: The Resolution Services Center (RSCCM) promotes conflict resolution through trainings, mediation services, and restorative practices. As mediators, we empower parties to take control of their own solutions, allowing people in conflict an opportunity to communicate more effectively in the hope of reaching a mutual agreement which can resolve their dispute. Our restorative practices offer children peaceful means to solve problems, uplifting productive conversations and focusing on understanding—not punishment—to transform schools and local communities.
