Hello
Welcome
Peace in Education was created by graduate students of the Negotiation, Conflict Resolution, and Peacebuilding Program at California State University, Dominguez Hills.
FUNDED BY: JAMS/NAFCM SUSTAINING COMMUNITY COHESION MINI-GRA
COMPTON HEALTH ACCESS INITIATIVE
Peace in Education volunteers have been involved in a project funded by the Jams Foundation and the National Association for Community Mediation (NAFCM).
VISION:
Peace in Education participates in the Community Mediation National Learning Community. As a participant, we will sustain community cohesion in the development and refinement of innovative and emerging community mediation center services which impact services or activities in one or more of the following areas: Education/Employment, Housing/Community Connections, or Physical/Mental Health. We have chosen to focus our commitment on increasing access and improving health for the community members in the City of Compton.
MISSION: Peace in Education’s role as a change agent is to foster actions that move communities from being less active to more proactive in achieving health for all. Community engagement will include the process of developing relationships that enable government/civil service providers and community members to come together as stakeholders to work together to address health-related issues and promote well-being to achieve positive health impact and outcomes. At the heart of this project is the empowerment and voice of the community.
The National Association for Community Mediation (NAFCM) has been committed since its inception (1994) to embed the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, starting with their founding (9) Hallmarks. Peace in Education shares all nine hallmarks. However, the Compton Health Equities project is guided by Hallmarks #1, #2, #3, #5 and #8.
