The AvP \ HIP project

The AVP\HIP training was fun because it showed us how to deal with certain situations and one of the situations we had to deal with was how to deal with the police. If you were stopped or in your car what would you say and what not to say and if the police came to your house or if you just walk to the store. But it was cool because they showed you in a form of a play about your rights. We also met different people from different parts of the United States.Places like Paris, Syracuse, New York, Florida, Puerto Rico, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and also Baltimore. We had so much fun there at the conference. At the AVP\HIP training we also played a game called the Big Wind Blows which is just a game that makes you feel like you have nothing to hide about being locked up or any thing to do with the police. It's a good game to know about the people around you. We also played a game called Birthday Lineup which is a game to see how much you have in common with somebody before you judged them. When we did that we found out that people had more in common than we thought. But I had a lot of fun and I will love to go back some day. I learned a lot and the people were so fun to be around. AVP\HIP was fun and good times.
