About Me: I work in a shared office space with Citizen Effect, so after months of hearing them talk about the 2011 yoga challenge, I couldn't wait to sign up! I just completed a 21 day yoga challenge in June, so I'm excited to take on another challenge. What makes this one so great is I get to use yoga to make a positive impact on the DC community and help end domestic violence through Becky's Fund.
Domestic violence affects everyone regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, or educational background. This project directly funds two Becky’s Fund youth initiatives: the “Becoming Your Own Heroine: Lessons in Self-Empowerment and Dating Violence” and the “Young Men’s Mentorship Program”. Targeting the highest risk youths in the D.C. metro area, the initiatives provide participants with education about dating and domestic violence. As a result, youth have the tools to create healthy, productive relationships, and learn how to teach others by example about conflict resolution, allowing them to build lasting and healthy relationships for the future.
