Sunday, November 13, 3-5pm, Parsons Branch Library, 1113 Parsons Ave.

The aim of this reading group is to prevent interpersonal violence (IPV) in central Ohio by supporting ongoing political education. We seek to create community-based interventions to IPV that do not rely on the police or governmental institutions.

We will read and discuss “Creative Interventions Toolkit: An Invitation and Practical Guide for Everyone to Stop Violence.”
