Facilitator Training: March 22-23, 9am-4pm

Registration for the APA-ACT's Facilitator Training is still open!

The ACT Raising Safe Kids program is a community-based violence prevention program that teaches and discusses topics such as positive discipline,conflict resolution, exposure to media violence, and child development. With violence becoming an unnecessarily rampant aspect of our society, the ACT Raising Safe Kids program helps parents and caretakers prevent violence in their children's lives.

Training to lead these parent groups of the RSK program is available for professionals working with families with young children. The next two-day training will take place at the Brandeis University campus on March 22 & 23 from 9AM-4PM.
