On Tuesday afternoon, 15 April, eleven participants from the Railroad Street Youth Project attended an Alternatives to Violence Project "Introductory Workshop" to get an feeling for AVP's workshop process. Gregg Osofsky and LJ Amsterdam facilitated the workshop (as Apprentice Facilitators). Bill Leicht subbed for Laurie Scott, as Lead Facilitator, because she was not available. Although nearly half the participants had to leave earlier than the planned 2½ hours, RSYP felt that AVP offered exactly what they had hoped for and asked the Peace Council to schedule a full Basic Workshop in June.
