Mission: 

Peace First is dedicated to building effective school climates by focusing on two major efforts within a school: teaching children the skills of conflict resolution and civic engagement; and providing educators with the critical skills and knowledge to integrate social-emotional learning into the school’s curriculum and culture. Combined, these efforts strengthen schools’ social and academic environments, creating stronger schools and more successful students. This is accomplished through an innovative, weekly curriculum taught by young adult volunteers and reinforced by intensive coaching for principals and teachers.
