Habit Disruptors: What Goes On In This House, Stays In This House

Many households in the black community are familiar with the statement, “What goes on in this house, stays in this house.” The statement is loaded with messaging that leads to family secrets, inappropriate behavior, shame, and guilt. Dysfunction needs to be shared so that it may be corrected. This interactive workshop covers a variety of important household issues.

Do It Different

Many behaviors are learned. It is not uncommon for individuals to repeat relationship patterns observed during childhood. Ultimately, those patterns create dysfunctional cycles that get passed on throughout generations. Some of those cycles may include divorce, domestic violence, abuse, abandonment, depression, anger, low self-worth, etc. This powerful workshop motivates individuals to define and build healthy relationships.

Move with Dignity

The Move with Dignity program serves children and teens in foster care. Individuals in foster care often move their belongings in trash bags because luggage is not identified as a need. They often move without notice, which means not being able to say goodbye to new friends, classmates and teachers. The foster care community regularly face grief and trauma. Moving suddenly with belongings in a trash bag does not help to cope with a new placement. This program is designed to help individuals move with feelings of dignity and respect. Each luggage is stuffed with coping toolkits that offer strategies for adjusting to new environments.
