Alternatives To Violence

---

 The GRAAFICS Alternatives-To-Violence (AVP) program is an intense curriculum based training program that enabling participants to deal directly with potentially violent situations in new and creative ways. GRAAFICS provides a safe space for participants to practice turning situations that will ordinarily become volatile, into win-win outcomes. With GRAAFICS the focus is turning conflict into opportunities for greater understanding and stronger relationships.

GRAAFICS offers curriculum based workshops that take place in prisons, schools and communities. A typical GRAAFICS Alternatives To Violence workshop begins with extractions from our AVP curriculum. In addition to this we use interactive exercises, role playing, games and we tap into and share personal experiences of participants.
