Throwback Thursday: Save RAPP Rally 2013

CADV's Teen Relationship Abuse Prevention Program (RAPP) has been helping teens for over 13 years. In 2013, for the fourth year in a row, Mayor Bloomberg has proposed cutting all funding for RAPP—one of the nation’s most successful school-based domestic violence prevention and anti-bullying programs. RAPP students and supporters showed their solidarity with the program in a rally outside City Hall.

CADV staff are excited to join RAPP students in front of City Hall.
