We are founded on shared life experiences, community connectedness and a deep desire to help build healthy neighborhoods for our residents. In these trusted spaces, we release repressed emotions from childhood and adult trauma then begin the process towards healthy thinking. We introduce new pathways guided with encouragement and optimism directed to educational and economic achievement and resourcefulness that improve stability, capacity to reason and build strong and positive relationship skills. We help recognize the destructive impact that abuse, neglect, abandonment, intergenerational violence, poverty, and racism can have on the capacity to live, learn, and thrive. In doing so, we can come to better understand ourselves and learn to nurture the people in our lives especially the children, our future generations.
