Mission: Building community on purpose leads to humanity becoming more humane. Association building community is a modular intentional community providing peace training, learning "conflict done well", and developing the process arts, the field of group process study, design, and facilitation. We provide strategic consulting and professional leadership training, develop community resilience projects, and support associated colleagues in creating and sustaining community-building initiatives. We are committed to practicing these values and sharing them with decision-makers, children and the adults who help them grow, and opening doors of opportunity so that conflict-process skills may be developed both locally and internationally.
