Peers Making Peace Program
We are certified to provide the “Peers Making Peace” program—the only peer mediation program recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Substance Abuse and listed on the Title IV Application, meaning it’s approved for funding.
Through the “Peers Making Peace” mediation program, young people can be empowered to resolve their own problems peacefully and improve their skills working with others. They have an opportunity to change the way they interact with each other and establish a new way of thinking about conflict, disputes and differences.
Research from the U.S. Department of Education reports improvements in participating schools, including:
- 34% Reduction In Initial Drug Use
- 73% Reduction In Expulsion
- 90.2% Reduction In Assaults
- 57.7% Reduction In Discipline Referrals
