THE CONFLICT CENTER'S MISSION

We believe:

  • There is too much violence in our world.
  • Violence creates more violence.
  • Personal and systemic violence are inextricably related.
  • People of all socio-economic conditions need skills in non-violence.
  • We all want a more peaceful world.

The Conflict Center's mission is to "reduce levels of physical, verbal and emotional violence by teaching and applying skills to help people in diverse communities manage their everyday conflicts nonviolently."

The Conflict Center promotes peacemaking.

The Conflict Center's belief is that we are all called to be peacemakers, whether at home, at school, in congregations, in neighborhoods, at work or in the world. The Conflict Center’s staff, board and volunteers practice effective conflict management both internally and externally.

The Conflict Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, founded in Colorado in 1987. Over the years The Conflict Center has grown from a dream for a place that would enable all those who wish to learn the practical skills of peacemaking, to a well run organization with an effective Board of Directors, a diverse staff and a vibrant volunteer effort that makes a difference seeing almost 7,000 people every year.
