Abstract | The Resolving Conflict Creatively Program (RCCP) began in New York City by Linda Lantieri who is now the national director. This program is for teachers, students, administrators, and parents who seek to make schools and society more peaceful through creative means. RCCP was developed because of the increasing statistics of violent acts that take place in U.S. schools and the increasing number of suicides and homicides by young people. RCCP helps people recognize different ways to resolve conflicts through peaceful means rather than through the violent acts young people see perpetuated in the media. Teachers can implement RCCP by employing a new classroom management style that includes the following components: (1) K-12 classroom curriculum; (2) professional training and ongoing assistance and support for teachers; (3) a student-led mediation program; (4) parent training; and (5) administrator training. The program finds that teachers report positive results. (JAG) |
