The North Bay Council is open to all AVP Facilitators, experienced, inexperienced, or new.
We are a Local Council of the
Alternatives to Violence Project,
a world-wide movement dedicated to learning to transform and resolve conflicts
without resort to manipulation, coercion, or violence.
We operate under the auspicies
of AVP/California
and AVP/USA.
Meetings are irregular, but usually on a second Thursday of a month in the Santa Rosa, CA area.
Email avpnbc@abhweb.org for details.
Our Council exists to provide public workshops in Northern California,
train and support AVP facilitators, support programs in prisons,
and to help each other grow and more fully express AVP principles in our lives.
AVP/North Bay Council is a tax-exempt charitable organization (EIN 83-2766713) under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and donations are tax-decuctable. We operate as a subordinate group of AVP-USA, Inc.
