Get HIPP -- Help Increase the Peace
Yesterday, during our tabling at McCallum High School, several teachers came up to our table to talk with us and express their support. One of the teachers is involved in the "No Place for Hate" campaign at the school, and he said that what would be very helpful for his students is a conflict resolution training program because a primary concern of students is dealing with conflicts in interpersonal relationships. Fights can happen especially when there are miscommunications, rumors, gossip, mistaken assumptions, etc.
