The Peace Academy is LFFP's training program that offers a variety of short workshops, multi-session certificate courses, and long-term, hands-on teaching opportunities. As demand for LFFP peace education grew, LFFP launched the Peace Academy in 2016 to train and certify Peace Practitioners. LFFP began teaching peace to children but quickly realized everyone yearns for peace. Peace is something that can be taught to people of all ages. Peace Academy classes provide adults the opportunity to experience and practice peace building as well as learn strategies for teaching peace to others. College students, teachers, caregivers, parents, coaches, and counselors all learn, experience, and practice peace with the support of veteran LFFP peace builders. We hope after Peace Academy you will use the LFFP curriculum in your homes, schools, teams, churches, and communities. Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are available.
