Description

Our Domestic Violence Prevention through Education Program is being offered in schools and after school programs on Staten Island teaching the Young Women to respect themselves for who they are and demand that everyone do the same towards them. Through a grant by John Tabacco, our prevention program has purchased 10 simulator babies which were first presented to an initiative at McKee High School to teach the students the responsibilities of being a parent specifically for the purpose of teen pregnancy prevention. The first semester program was a huge success and certificates were presented to all student participants.

WOW will continue to work with other community based groups on Staten Island to to improve the quality of life for families on Staten Island.
