Our bullying and abuse prevention work in school communities is highlighted and includes a stirring essay co-written by two extraordinary Middle School RAPP Peer Leaders, Farhin Puspita and Sara Ghoneim, and a questionnaire that was developed by RAPP Peer Leader & Senior Class Vice President Iemanie Stokes, to better understand interpersonal relationship dynamics at her school, particularly regarding emotional abuse.
Click on the link to OPDV to see the full results of the questionnaire.
The OPDV Winter 2016 Bulletin is also available on the OPDV website, in both HTML and PDF formats.
Here is to a New Year of Healthy Reformation, Change, Safety and Peace!
