The nonviolent shield is used for restraining an agitated standing individual, while protecting that individual from a violent fall or similar jerking associated with a restraining intervention. The nonviolent shield comprises a rectangular flexible cargo net; an elongated body-height central cushion attached to the cargo net along a median of the cargo net, and two elongated body-height side cushions attached to the cargo net in a spaced-apart parallel relationship with the central cushion. The present nonviolent shield also has handhold areas of the cargo net bordering the central cushion. In another aspect, the central cushion has a movable portion on an upper segment thereof so that the central cushion is brought with firmness against the torso of the individual to be restrained, and with lightness against the face and head of that individual.
