Anyday is a full-day program typically done in schools but we are opening up the opportunity for any student in our community to attend – for FREE! 

Anyday is comprised of student-centered activities that guide participants in developing a new awareness of themselves and their role in inter-group relations. The goal is to help raise student awareness of issues that may affect them and their peers, to challenge their thinking on these matters, and to change how students act as it relates to building relationships with others. 

The program will occur on Saturday, December 2^nd from 10:00am-4:30pm on the Guilford College campus. Encourage young people to register soon! There are only 40 spots open and registration is going fast. 

Students can register here: https://www.tfaforms.com/5095423
