The Hands are Not for Hurting Program
Offered by our Children′s Advocate is the Hands Are Not for Hurting program. This program is primarily intended for school-aged children and young adults from kindergarten through college, specializing in elementary and middle schools. Participants pledge to not use their hands or words for hurting themselves or others, and enjoy tracing their own hands and assembling their cutouts to post on a big banner.To view the parent program for the Hands project, please click the link below.
