The Peace Project: a Fun, Inspirational Summer Program Offered in August!
Hi all! Do you have a 9–14-year-old and are you planning your kid's summer activities for August? Looking for an opportunity for them to make new friends while doing something meaningful? Consider signing them up for The Peace Project, a fun and educational peace program for 9–14-year-olds that I'm leading at Anne's Haven, a community peace center in Portage Park, this August!
Let me introduce myself. My name is Jacopo, and I'm a CPS teacher and Director of Peace Education programs at Anne's Haven. I have my Master's in Peace and Conflict Studies from Ulster University in Belfast. I'm passionate about working with kids to build their teamwork, communication, conflict resolution, and leadership skills, and encourage them to be more civically engaged.
I strongly believe that kids on the Northwest Side and throughout Chicago would greatly benefit from participating in this program. The Peace Project will strengthen key communication, teamwork, and conflict resolution skills needed to thrive professionally and personally, in addition to encouraging students to become agents of peace and change in their communities. Both myself and my assistant have background checks.
I've attached the flyer with key information. Please reach out with any questions, and I would greatly appreciate it if you could forward the flyer to any parents you think may be interested as well! Thanks so much!
