The New York Center for Nonviolent Communication (NYCNVC) is a spontaneous, cooperative network of NVC learners, proponents, trainers, facilitators and practitioners who share a passion for the work of Marshall Rosenberg. Our immediate intention is to carefully develop and deliver amazing NVC trainings within and across pervading geographic, cultural, economic and language bounds. Our long term intention is to establish a widespread understanding of Nonviolent Communication as a key to creating a more compassionate and sustainable world to leave for our children's children.

NYCNVC was founded in 2003 by Thom Bond and Nellie Bright, with the support of Marshall Rosenberg, Larry Wydro and a small group of volunteers. It was the combination of Marshall agreeing to come offer trainings in New York and the community's ability to spontaneously organize ourselves that gave birth to NYCNVC as a viable NVC organization.

In 2011, Thom Bond created The Compassion Course Online. The intention of the course was to make the skills of this work available to anyone in the world regardless of location, finances or experience.
