“With minimal instruction, this is a tool that kids at all levels can use to resolve issues independently.  My favorite aspects of the PEACEWALK® are that it empowers kids to express their feelings, and it provides important practice in understanding another's perspective.”

“The Peace Walk® is an excellent tool for teaching kids a step-by-step way to resolve conflict. Most importantly, it helps kids learn how to take each other's perspective and apologize for their mistakes. Our students love it! "

“When using the mat, students are empowered to solve social problems on their own. It is such a quick, easy and independent way for all ages to resolve conflicts! This strategy has been an excellent resource for teaching children the communication process of give and take. It fosters much healthier relationships in the classroom and on the playground. Our school even has one painted on our playground for children to use in the place most arguments happen. ”

"The mat truly helped resolve conflicts between students. I was happier, and students were happier after completing The Peace Walk®!"
     William R., Teacher, Eugene, OR
 
"I used The PeaceWalk® with my high school students and found it to be a successful tool for resolving conflicts and managing their social anxiety levels.  Despite their age, they loved having books read to them because it helped to reduce stress and brought back sweet memories of being younger. The kids said that they liked using The PeaceWalk® because it was simple and effective. We had many excellent discussions about what people might say or do to get a reaction and ways to proactively and effectively deal with situations. My students found that having a few 'go to' strategies/responses helped avoid potential conflicts. They liked having a voice that is meaningful."
