Compassionate Communication (CC) is a communication process developed by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg in the 1960’s and is often used today as a conflict resolution aid. CC is based on the idea that all people have the capacity for compassion and resort to behavior that harms others only when they fail to recognize more effective strategies for meeting their own and other’s needs. While CC is taught as a process of communication, it also provides a set of values, a parenting technique and an educational methodology.

Pam and Brian Dyer Steward have lived in Harrington since 1984 and have four grown children. They have been a part of a CC study group since 2008. Pam, as a midwife and both of them as parents, have learned the value and importance of healthy communication and have found the CC process helpful in day to day living.
