7th Grade Parent and Guardian Workshop led by Day One - Thursday October 29th @ 6:30pm

/

Day One is excited to begin our third year of providing the Early Relationship Abuse Prevention Program (ERAPP) to the ICE community. ERAPP is a workshop series for students in DOE middle schools about healthy dating relationships (and, in the case of younger students, friendships as well). All of our workshops are facilitated online, via Zoom, and use age appropriate, activity based methods meant to foster an active discussion among participants. ERAPP is an initiative of the Mayor's Office to End Domestic and Gender Based Violence.

We invite you to learn more about ERAPP by joining a workshop for parents and guardians on Thursday, October 29th at 6:30pm.
