NVR Action and Practice CIC


 

NVR Action and Practice CIC is a London-based social enterprise company, established by Elisabeth Heismann and Julia Jude. The company aims to provide bespoke Non-Violent Resistance (NVR) programs inside and outside of London for local community agencies, individual professionals and parents with Lived Experience of NVR.

 

Our approach can be summarized using the following five C's:
Connection before Correction: promoting work that creates deep understanding and empathy for others
Collaboration: working closely with parents, carers and communities with the aim to promote voices which were previously often unheard, untold or misrepresented.
Contemporary and Culturally Diverse: we are committed to new ways of working, thinking and to the creation of solutions to challenging situations and difficult problems beyond the boundaries of tradition, culture, race, class, gender or age.
Courageous: through the regulation of shame, the Non-violent Resistance approach facilitates the development of these self-esteem- building qualities in people and situations where they were previously inaccessible.
Community Building: we are committed to creating communities which take active collective responsibility for bringing about positive change based on shared values.


 

We aim to benefit:

  • young people through addressing extremely challenging behaviours inside and outside of their homes.
  • parents who struggle with re-building their relationships with their children.
  •  communities working with young people and their families and carers.

 


Our training courses have been specifically designed for:

    • Social workers, teachers, nurses, psychologists’ family therapists, residential social workers, family support workers in social care or early intervention services, key workers in parental drug and alcohol services, youth offending parent workers and key workers, working in the public, voluntary and private sectors.
    • Professionals who use a group work approach within their work context, work with people from diverse backgrounds and would like to use an integrated approach.
    • For community organisations interested in user engagement to enhance professional practice and reach those in the community with greatest need.
