William J. Kreidler Award for Distinguished Service to the field of Conflict Resolution Education

Each year, the ACR Education Section presents the William J. Kreidler Award to an individual who has shown “Distinguished Service to the Field of Conflict Resolution Education.” This national award is the highest honor for ACR members working in the Education Sector. The recipient must show continued dedication and accomplishment in increasing the reach and impact of conflict resolution in and outside the classroom.

Established in 2007, the award is named after the late teacher, author, trainer, and Quaker, William J. Kriedler, whose conflict resolution curriculum materials were in use in more than 50,000 classrooms by the time of his passing in 2000.
