Help Create Safer Schools and Communities
Help Prevent School Violence

Dear ECR Supporter:

Our first priority continues to be youth and youth at risk. At ECR, we are committed to helping train and mentor young people to learn productive, successful conflict resolution and life enhancing skills.

These life skills include -

  • Active, respectful listening

  • Communicating thoughts and feelings

  • Taking turns 

  • Thinking critically

  • Making decisions

Training in conflict resolution also provides these benefits to our youth:

  • It teaches citizenship skills for living in a democratic and culturally diverse society

  • It teaches students to care about others and treat them respectfully

  • It is a proven positive link to academic achievement

  • It reduces stress

  • It contributes to the prevention of drug and alcohol abuse

The time is now and the need is urgent to address this growing problem. Due to limited resources and declining budgets, many schools are unable to adequately address the problem.

Founded in 1988, ECR is one of the Midwest's leading training centers in mediation and conflict resolution. Our success has created increased requests and referrals for our regionally acclaimed programs and trainings. Our professional staff fulfills these requests but additional funding is needed to meet the growing demand and need.

Here are just a few examples of the success of our work:

  • "We know of no better way to equip our students for the 21st Century than to prepare them to get along with others. Our schools are only one of many entities that continue to vie for the time of the competent, caring and influential people at ECR"
           Connie Curry, Former Superintendent, Manchester Community Schools


  • "As we look at the increasing importance of such interventions as peer mediation and conflict resolution skills, it is obvious that having a resource such as ECR close by is very important to our school system. It is our hope that the important work they are fulfilling will continue."
           Dr. Lee Harman, Former Superintendent, Warsaw Community Schools

Your continued financial support will assist ECR in providing critically needed services and training in peaceful conflict resolution.

By giving now, you help ECR provide:

  • Low-cost mediation services, including school attendance and truancy

  • Consultation with school and community leaders

  • Conflict resolution training

  • Elementary and secondary school workshops

  • Peer mediator training
