Circles of Hope

           Circles of Peace

by LaDoris Payne-Bell

A practical and unique 40 page group process which will help:

• Individuals and families move from being victims of violence to courageous advocates for peacemaking
• Crate hope and peace through social support, educating for action, and organizing for change
• Lead individuals and families to commit to nonviolence

Designed for those working with families, especially low income families, or individuals around issues of violence, peacemaking, and empowerment, for example:

• Family life educators
• Social service workers
• School personnel
• Coordinators of church outreach ministries
• Victim support service coordinators

Linking the seven Kwanzaa principles with the seven components of the Family Pledge of Nonviolence makes this a valuable resource for families and groups wanting a multicultural perspective
