BRAVE ¦Centre for Building Resilience through Anti-Violence Education offers a comprehensive set of services based on the award-winning, evidence-based, cognitive behavioural SNAP® (Stop Now And Plan) program for girls aged 6-11 who struggle with social and behavioural issues at home or school, as well as their families. These behaviours may include bullying or being mean to others, making threats, being physically aggressive towards or hurting others, not listening, missing school, having negative peers associations, and stealing.
