YWCA: Body Rights Presentations

In Kindergarten, 3rd, and 5th grades, a trained presenter from the YWCA will visit each classroom to show a video and have a discussion about "Body Rights." This program is presented to each classroom in a non-threatening and age-appropriate manner, emphasizing the right to say, "No!" when a touch or action isn't right. This program will occur in the fall. Parents interested in further discussion about this program should contact Mrs. Kalloz. If you are interested in learning more about what programs and services are available through the YWCA of greater Harrisburg, please visit, YWCA Harrisburg.
