Peaceful Conflict Resolution Through Assertive Communication





Julie Curtis and IMPACT Instructors Bruce Brio (formerly Antjuan), Ben Ruiz, and Martha Thompson attended a workshop on Peaceful Conflict Resolution Through Assertive Communication at Thousand Waves Martial Arts and Self-Center.

Kate Webster, Director of Violence Prevention at Thousand Waves, taught the workshop and Carla Riggs assisted. As part of a professional exchange between IMPACT Chicago and Thousand Waves, both Kate and Carla have completed the IMPACT Chicago Core Program.

Through review of key principles of assertive communication and interactive exercises, participants had the opportunity to reflect upon and practice using boundary setting tools to resolve conflicts effectively.
