Dear AVP New York Facilitator,

You are invited to attend our annual Forum Day--this year at Sullivan Prison.

Each Spring AVP New York outside (civilian) facilitators gather at one of the NYS prisons where we have an active program and spend the day with the inside (incarcerated) facilitators.  The inside team creates the program for the day.

You must be a registered volunteer with a prison in NYS in order to participate in Forum Day.

Please contact the AVP NY office to register and for more information.
