NCPF is excited to announce that we recently received a grant through the Triangle Community Foundation's Community Grantmaking Program to help support year 2 of our Peaceful Schools-NC initiative at Central Park School for Children in Durham.

 

This year there were 78 grant applicants and 16 were awarded money and WE WERE ONE OF THEM! The money will be used to help provide continued training and support to school staff, parents, and student leaders. It will allow the student body to continue its progress of creating a school that is free of bullying and intimidation.

 

 

For more information about PS-NC or how you can bring it to your school, please contact sstiegler@ncpsychoanalysis.org.

 

 

NCPF would like to congratulate Ms. Anne Johnson for her work in creating the above YouTube video as her 2009 NCPF Journalism Prize project.

 

The NCPF Medical Journalism Award recognizes and encourages outstanding journalism that promotes mental health and contributes to the understanding of psychoanalysis among the general public. A $1,000 award is given annually to a student at the UNC-CH School of Journalism and Mass Communication who presents the strongest proposal related to promoting psychoanalysis in any media.

Join us at the ball game and help raise money for Peaceful Schools-NC at Central Park School for Children (CPSC). See Brochure for Details.
