Peace Path: A Visual Conflict Resolution Strategy

I also use it personally with my students if an issue needs to be addressed. It really helps students learn how to work out a problem in a safe way. Just print the pages on card stock, laminate each one, and tape it together. It's very easy to use- two people step on each sides of the path on the footprints and walk through the
