For educators who are unable to afford books for their classrooms, we have a book donation program. Please contact us to learn more about qualifying for the book donation program.
We are also committed to supporting educators who want to teach peace literacy, and we offer workshops to help people teach and model peace literacy skills. Visit here to see Paul’s workshop and lecture schedule.
Donate here to help sustain our work to provide free peace literacy curricula to educators.
