The Nonviolent Institute - is a court-mandated diversion strategy offering participants to explore the basic beliefs about who we are in relationship to our partners, our friends, and our community.
The goal of these classes are for participants to;
- stop abuse, bullying, intimidation, and forms of power over another.
- learn alternative appropriate behaviors.
- examine beliefs and behaviors that support domestic violence.
- expand definitions of violence and controlling behaviors.
- explore the effects of violence on others.
- address, explore, and examine the role as a co/parallel parent or mate.
Many want to have good relationships but if they seek to undo the harm between themselves, they need to examine their use of abusive and manipulative tactics against others in their world.
During this 26 week program, participants will learn exercises and strategies to help become respectful, nonviolent and more supportive.
