A national nonprofit organization, The Ophelia Project is headquartered in Erie, Pennsylvania and has been creating safe social climates since 1997.We emerged as one community’s decision to increase parental and community support for adolescents; we grew to become one of the nation’s leading experts in identifying and addressing relational aggression in schools, the workplace and communities.

OUR GOAL-

Founded as a catalyst for positive change within schools and communities nationwide, The Ophelia Project is committed to helping youth form healthy peer relationships while creating safe social climates for all.

WHAT IS "SAFE"?

Safe social climates consist of community members who protect, respect, encourage and hold one another accountable. Relational aggression, covert aggression and bullying – including taunting, exclusion, gossiping or rumor-spreading – are not tolerated.
