Bring the Friendship Project, a workshop series created by the Ophelia Project, to your troop. Contact Carole Aksak for more information.
A national nonprofit organization, the Ophelia Project is headquartered in Erie, Pennsylvania and has been creating safe social climates since 1997. It emerged as one community's decision to increase parental and community support for girls; we grew to become one of the nation's leading experts in identifying and addressing social bullying in schools, the workplace and communities.
The Ophelia Project partners with educational, civic and community leaders to assess social conditions and advocate healthy peer relationships. Through community building, professional development and school programming, the Ophelia Project educates and empowers kids and adults across North America.
