• Peacemaking circles are a structured form of dialogue based on indigenous values and principles. Circles foster a sense of community based on mutual respect with broad applications in many different contexts. They provide a way to bring people together to have difficult conversations, to work through conflict or differences, and to build relationships in schools, neighborhoods, workplace, family and the criminal justice system.
