Peer Resolution for Oklahoma Students (PROS) realizes the vision of former Oklahoma Supreme Court Justice Alma Wilson and the leadership of the Alternative Dispute Resolution System to offer FREE peer mediation training to ALL school districts in Oklahoma, in partnership with the University of Central Oklahoma.
Peer Mediation teaches strategies to young people which allow them to handle conflicts in a positive and constructive manner. With proper training and application of that training, students learn to use conflict as a positive force that can lessen the detrimental effects of conflicts and increase social skills and personal self-image. PROS equips Oklahoma educators to implement peer mediation, collaborating in transforming students into emotionally intelligent and engaged citizens.
