Our approach
to violence Prevention
Our approach to violence prevention is to create “Connected Communities” by providing transformational programs that reconnect youth with themselves, their higher purpose and their inner power to disappear gun violence and gang culture within their own communities.
Connected Communities are those that have strong social connections between individuals, families, and organizations within a given geographic area. These connections are built on trust, shared values, and a sense of belonging, which enables people to work together towards common goals.
Our emphasis on "Connected Communities" recognizes that social disconnection and isolation are significant contributing factors to the perpetuation of violence and gang culture.
Here's a more detailed explanation of our approach:
In summary, our approach of "Connected Communities" recognizes that social disconnection and isolation are at the core of many issues related to violence and gang culture.
how we do it?
We focus on 2 key objectives:
Youth Empowerment: Empower and equip young individuals with essential leadership skills, social & emotional intelligence training and the confidence to become influential leaders within their communities.
Community Engagement and Support: Fostering a sense of community through engagement and support programs, enabling moms to connect, share experiences, and access resources.
Our Programs:
Youth Development: The Forever Cameron Experience
Our mission with The Forever Cameron Experience is to create Authentic Connections through life-altering programs that connect participants to Self, Source, Family and Community.
The Forever Cameron Experience is a weekend intensive program held quarterly for youths ages 13-17. We use mindful exercises to bring self- awareness and teach emotional regulation. We incorporate fitness/boxing drills to teach resilience and alternate methods of emotional expression. We use Improv and acting activities to teach communication skills and unleash creativity and self-expression and we also walk the participants through experiential simulations that develop critical thinking and leadership skills.
Community Engagement and Support: Overcoming Grief w/Power
The "Overcoming Grief with Power Program" is designed to support individuals who are struggling with the loss of a loved one. Grief can be a complex and overwhelming experience, but this program aims to provide participants with the tools and resources to manage their emotions and build resilience.
The program is divided into four sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the grieving process.
Each section includes a combination of educational materials, exercises, and interactive activities to help individuals work through their grief and develop strategies for moving forward with power and resilience.
