  • Respect for All (RFA) Week

    RFA Week Trainings for Families

    The Respect for All (RFA) Team is proud to share this catalog of our upcoming family facing professional learning opportunities.

     

    During Respect for All Week, February 10 -14, 2025, schools across the city will have the opportunity to highlight and build upon ongoing programs to help students, staff, and communities gain a better understanding of diversity. This year’s themes include: 

     

    • Mon. 2/10: Celebrating Kindness/Be an Ally 
    • Tues. 2/11: Anti-Bullying/ Cyberbullying 
    • Wed. 2/12: Respect for Diversity, Disability, Religious Acceptance and Racial Diversity 
    • Thurs. 2/13: Gender Identity, Sexual Orientation, LGBTQ Pride and Acceptance
    • Friday 2/14: National No One Eats Alone Day



    The NYCDOE Respect for All (RFA) program was launched in 2007 to build the capacity of staff and students to actively promote a community of inclusion in each of our schools. The importance of promoting respect for diversity in our daily practice is vital to creating and sustaining an inclusive school climate and culture in each of our schools so that all students feel valued, supported and safe.

     

    NYCPS is committed to maintaining a safe and supportive learning environment that is free from harassment, intimidation and/or bullying, sexual harassment, and discrimination on account of actual or perceived race, color, age, creed, ethnicity, national origin, citizenship/immigration status, religion, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, disability, or weight.



    RFA Week Trainings for Families

    Exploring the Range of Emotions (Virtual)

    In this workshop by Morningside Center, we will be looking closely at big, more intense emotions, how to navigate them ourselves, and how to support those we care for through them. We will spend our time exploring a range of feelings, including anger, and working together with several powerful and practical strategies for dealing with “big” emotions in ways that further connection and care.

    Supporting Religious Differences with Respect for All

    In this workshop by Tenenbaum, we will look at how the rising generation is growing up in an increasingly religiously diverse world, encountering differences in schools and social settings. What skills do children need to navigate this diversity, and how can parents help? In this 60-minute session, participants will explore religious diversity in America, reflect on their own experiences with religious identity, and explore communication skills that demonstrate respectful curiosity.

    Understanding the Adolescent Brain (Virtual)

    In this workshop by Morningside Center, we will learn about adolescent brain development, what that looks like in action, and ways for us to support and navigate through adolescence alongside our children. Adolescents need and deserve adults that support their development and understand what they might not yet be able to do. This looks like: guidance, practice, time, space, repetition,   support, permission to make mistakes, and collaborative corrective measures.
