This event is part of Y4H’s Youth Power Festival, celebrating youth leadership, community strength, and collective action for housing justice and safety. Our workshop is designed to help participants build practical self-defense skills, increase personal safety awareness, and support safer, stronger neighborhoods. We’ll focus on real-world strategies that are accessible to all experience levels, emphasizing empowerment, situational awareness, and simple, effective techniques you can use right away. By partnering with Y4H, we recognize the connection between safety and housing justice and aim to create space for learning, discussion, and skill-building that supports secure, resilient communities for all New Yorkers.
Expect hands-on instruction, movement drills, safety tips, and opportunities to connect with fellow community members. Open to all ages and skill levels. Please wear comfortable clothing and sneakers, bring water, and come ready to move and learn. For more information, visit ppcsafety.com/citysafe or email info@ppcsafety.com.
