Peace Learning Center of Milwaukee

PLC - Milwaukee

The Peace Learning Center (PLC) of Milwaukee started out in 2002 teaching the 4th graders of one school vital skills of non-violent conflict resolution. Based on a tremendously successful, city-wide project in Indianapolis, Milwaukee's PLC has grown rapidly, now teaching peace skills to 16 schools, with more projects on the way.

Phyllis Berentsen is a founder and board member of the PLC, and Karen Swanson and Darrell Smith are workshop facilitators. You can email the PLC at peacelearning@sbcglobal.net
