Our Mission
At AVP WA, our mission is to improve the lives of those in need by empowering people to transform violence into non-violence in their families and in their communities.
The fundamental belief in AVP is that there is a power for peace in everyone, available to those who are open to it. AVP builds on a spiritual base of respect and care for self and others.
Our History
The Alternatives to Violence Project began in 1975. An inmate group at Green Haven Prison (New York) was working with youth gangs and teenagers at risk.
This workshop was so successful that requests were received for more, and AVP was born.
AVP currently conducts hundreds of workshops each year in Australia.
