Safe Date and Healthy Relationships
The PTSA Outreach Committee of Miami Palmetto Senior High School extends this invitation to the community to attend our "Safe Dates and Healthy Relationships" Program. Teen dating violence has been rampant in recent years--affecting young teens, young adults, mature adults and celebrities alike. Last year we hosted this presentation and it was very well received by students, parents and adults from throughout the community. We are hoping to have an even larger audience this year. Therefore, we invite you to circulate the attached flyer to teens, parents, guardians and community members who are interested in attending. We appreciate an RSVP for any large groups (5 or more attendees) to ensure sufficient materials for everyone.

The program will take place at R.R. Moton Elementary School on Tuesday, May 17 at 6:45pm. Details about the program are in the flyer. If you would like us to provide hard copies of the flyer please let us know.

Thank you for helping to promote this important program. Keeping our children free from emotional and physical abuse as they develop relationships is critical. Attending this workshop is the first step. If you have any questions or need additional information, feel free to contact the Outreach Chair, Desiree Davis, at desbdavis@gmail.com.
