The PACS Program Description Video requires the free Quicktime Player. We have divided the video into segments to make downloading and viewing easier. We have also added Vimeo viewers to easily see a relatively low quality copy of the video segments.
Introduction to the Center for Peacemaking and Conflict Studies
This clip introduces you to the Center for Peacemaking and Conflict Studies.
One of the specialty areas of PACS, developing alternatives to the current system of criminal justice and applying those alternatives in other ways throughout society.
One restorative justice practice that shows great promise is Community Justice Conferencing. It is used in criminal justice and child dependency cases, and PACS faculty are developing many other uses in situations around the world.
Taking Restorative Justice into the classroom, PACS shows schools how to change their discipline systems to a cooperative model that greatly improves the school environment.
