The WJCF Peer Mediation Invitational is a unique opportunity to increase and deepen nonviolence and conflict resolution training fro students who serve as peer mediators on their campuses. During the Invitational, students from over 50 different schools throughout Los Angeles County will participate in demonstration sessions where they will take on the role of disputing parties as well as the role of mediator, managing each stage of the mediation from welcoming the parties to writing the agreement. This event will also recognize and award the individual students and schools for their dedication to peace and violence prevention. For a flyer click here. For an application, click here.
