Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® is a program developed by the Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI). With a core philosophy of providing for the Care, Welfare, Safety and Security of everyone involved in a crisis situation, this approach is designed to prevent and de-escalate crisis situations in a manner that is both trauma-informed and person-centered. By focusing on de-escalation strategies that respect personal dignity and promote safety, NVCI aims to build trusting relationships and empower individuals, recognizing their unique needs and perspectives.

Registration for 2025-2026 is now closed. Registration for 2026-2027 will open in late spring.

These offerings are for SD 61 employees only. We recommend that whenever possible, schools register as teams (P/VP/GVTA/ CUPE 947) working specifically with students at your school site who present with more complex needs.
