Reader Suggestion

I love when readers send in ideas that have been useful to them. I just received this list of conflict resolution resources that were recommended in an article called "Don't Get Revenge: Conflict Resolution Skills," published on line in The Consumer Voice. Special thanks for this list to Kenya at the W.B. Goodwin Community Center who is using conflict resolution in her life, and from what her group leader says, these skills are making a difference. We need more young people like Kenya who go the extra mile to try and get along with others. Imagine what our world would be like if everyone did this!
