We are parents and professionals who have come together to talk about how to raise our children safe from exposure to violence in the media, community, school, and home. We are a diverse and accepting group. We welcome comments that reflect respect and support. We initially gathered for the ACT Raising Safe Kids Workshop in Somerville MA.

Great to be a part of the program, which we intend to put into practice with our newborn (December 19th) daughter as she grows.
Quick alert to a typo in the above description “We are diverse and accepting group.” should read “…are (a) diverse…” Thanks!
