Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Immersion Learning Program
Through our proven and popular tri-level immersion program
you can learn all the core skills of NVC plus intermediate and advanced
practices, such as expressing and responding to anger, translating
self-judgment to self-understanding and skillful interruption and pacing of
conversations.
Courses are offered in two formats: weekly classes
(90” for six weeks) or weekend format (two days of 7.5 hours). For these
programs, we use Connecting across
Differences (Connor and Killian) as a companion book and workbook; this
text is offered at a special discount for participants at the time of
registering. Participants are also invited to do exercises at home and meet
(via phone or in person) with an “empathy buddy.”
Introductory Conflict-Resolution Trainings
Introductory Compassionate, Nonviolent Communication training is offered at little or no fee in the community
to hundreds annually, including at the NY Open Center, the JCC, 92nd St

for organizations, including corporate entities, member-based groups, and community and education nonprofits. Approximately 30 organizations and groups served each
