Leadership Training for Sharing Nonviolent Communication
with Parents, Teachers and Youth-Serving Professionals
ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR RAISING TOMORROW'S LEADERS 2025-2026
This nine-month program is co-lead by Stephanie Bachmann Mattei, (CNVC Certified Trainer and CNVC Assessor), Shera Lyn Parpia (CNVC Certified Trainer), and Anisha Pandya (CNVC Certified Trainer). Our aim is to nurture and develop leaders who are committed to spreading Nonviolent Communication (NVC) to parents, teachers, and youth-serving professionals in their communities in India.
The original program was created in the USA in 2006 by the late Inbal Kashtan (CNVC Certified Trainer, co-founder of BayNVC and author of Parenting from Your Heart: Sharing the Gifts of Compassion, Connection and Choice) as a program of the Peaceful Families, Peaceful World Project of The International Center for Nonviolent Communication - CNVC and BayNVC. The program operated then for many years in partnership with the NVC Academy.
Raising Tomorrow's Leaders begins in September 2025 and runs through May 2026, and is structured as a long-distance program in order to allow an international team of trainers to support parents, teachers, and youth-serving professionals in India. The components of the program include regularly scheduled video-conferences, weekly study suggestions, buddy relationships, and individualized online support.
A Word from Miki Kashtan
The Parent Peer Leadership Program was created by my late sister Inbal, and has
been carried by Ingrid and Stephanie for years. What I hear from parents about it is
universally positive. I imagine we all know that for as long as parenting continues in
the way that it has been for centuries and in parts of the world for millennia, we will
continue to reproduce the existing paradigm. This program specifically trains people
to share NVC parenting principles and practices with others.
