Join Youngstown City Schools as we recognize Nonviolence Week October 1-7. On July 11, 2013, Governor Kasich signed Senate Bill Number 38 creating Nonviolence Week in Ohio.

This bill was proposed by Mahoning Valley Sojourn to the Past students, which is a small group of Youngstown high school students, who in 2009, after experiencing a life changing journey called Sojourn to the Past, decided to have a Nonviolence Week in the Youngstown City Schools.
