The Milwaukee Fire Department presents:
PROJECT STAYING
ALIVE
In partnership with Milwaukee Public Schools and
Project Ujima
Project Staying Alive is a program designed to educate the children of our community on proper anger management techniques to help reduce incidences of violent injury in the City of Milwaukee. Modeled after the highly successful Milwaukee Fire Departments Education Center Survive Alive Program. It will consist of five sessions taught by Milwaukee Fire Department personnel and the student's teachers. Due to the Safe Schools/Healthy Students grant initiative, this program is available at no cost to schools within the grant authority. All training, education, supplies and equipment are paid for by the grant.
