Day 60 - Intervention

There have been many times in history when citizens intervened, using nonviolent action, to prevent a detrimental outcome in their communities.

Reflection
  • Having the courage to intervene in a caring way with someone whose behavior is destructive can be lifesaving.
  • Through your honest, direct and loving communication, we can encourage people to make positive changes.
Action
  • What creative interventions to violence and aggression have you witnessed or heard about?
  • Brainstorm some ideas about creative interventions you might use.
  • Look for opportunities to creatively intervene today.
“That's all drugs and alcohol do, they cut off your emotions in the end.”
Ringo Starr
“What people see you do may not be remembered; what they hear you say may be forgotten; but how they feel your intervention in their times of need will forever be remembered.”
Israelmore Ayivor, Leaders' Watchwords
“Because you can't intervene everywhere, don't conclude you can't intervene anywhere.”
Zbigniew Brzezinski
