Physical and Mental Health

In society today there is a need to care for our mental health. We see more senseless killings from angry children, wives, husbands etc. Not just murder, there are more attacks in general on the psyche of people. We need to address mental concerns especially in minority communities where there is a stigma attached to seeking any sort of counseling or any help when dealing with issues of mental health.

My program is going to address the needs of the community through the art of spoken word and writing. The program will be geared towards youth ages 8-17 and hopefully through the children the parents will become involved. The program will have different levels beginning with just exercises in writing how you feel and learning to journal and ending with shows where the children will showcase their writings, at least the ones they want to share!

I have more developing and tweeking to do!
