Playing with Anger: Teaching Coping Skills to African American Boys Through Athletic and Culture
Penn Professor, Dr. Howard Stevenson will lead a book discussion about unique, “culturally relevant” interventions that can teach coping skills to African American boys with a history of aggression.

Interventions and preventative actions developed in the PLAAY project (Preventing Long-Term Anger and Aggression) are presented.
