Elizabeth Loescher is a pioneer in the field of dispute resolution, and has been for over 20 years, she is the founder and former Executive Director of the Conflict Center in Denver, Colorado. She has drawn on her field experience and worked with local school officials to create curricula that are widely used in schools to reduce levels of physical, verbal, and emotional violence by teaching the practical skills of peacemaking and conflict and anger management. Providing students with a framework for examining and working out their conflicts, she contributed to the reduction of the number of violent incidents in a West Denver school from three per day to none within three semesters.

She has made peace a priority in her life, and that I really respect. She has written books on the topic of mediation was well, these can be found here. She is a woman who has devoted her life to a cause she believes in and had made a world of difference.
