Many intentional communities integrate communication processes into daily life and work. These processes release anger in healing and creative ways. There are a number of trainers and consultants who offer trainings and workshops and some of them have modules that are specifically geared towards intentional communities. An example of this is the Heart of Now, headquartered in Eugene, OR . Their website is at http://www.heartofnow.org/index.html
Many consulting firms offer anger management and employee assistance programs including psychological counseling, books, CD’s, and workshops. These programs, while possibly effective, are not nearly widespread enough to prevent problems from occurring and are most often employed reactively to respond to an incident that has already occurred instead of proactively to prevent problems from arising. Individual reluctance to step forward and admit a problem along with bureaucracy and red tape can also greatly hinder these programs’ effectiveness.
