Non-Violent Crisis Intervention ™ Training
Next Session is Booked for October 24 on the West Shore
Many Village Initiative network organizations have expressed interest in having staff trained in Non-Violent Crisis Intervention™ to help support staff in defusing difficult situations. With the support of United Way, our network has invested in TVI affiliated NVCI Trainers and are pleased to offer several training sessions in the coming months (available training dates – February to October – may be found in Section 6 of the Application for Registration form).
If you are interested in having staff trained from your organization (and it’s a member of the TVI network), please complete and return the Application for Registration form to Nicola MacKay.
