We C.A.R.E. for Community Empowerment!
BOY-CHILD EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM [B-CEP]
CAREUSTZ believes in the empowerment for ALL genders. While in many organizational and community efforts empowerment has been skewed towards girls and women, we believe that such strategy creates an unhealthy gender gap in the way men of the future (boys and male youth of today) fail to realize their potential in many aspects of their lives, including adaptation to life skills, community engagement, building healthy relationships, and maintaining mental and emotional well-being.
Stay tuned for the powerful program to be rolled out soon.
Trauma-Informed Care & Wellness Series
CAREUSTZ in collaboration with the Kentucky Office for Refugees (KOR) have started a program to address gaps in trauma-informed services and wellness in their communities. This partnership allowed over 100 clients from different national, age, and gender backgrounds to complete the trainings between April and September 2023. A colorful recognition ceremony, in which the graduates were awarded with certificates was held on Saturday, September 9, 2023.
The training is coming up again starting October 2023. Four groups of Adult Females, Adult Males, Young Females and Young Males will be used to reach the diverse groups of refugee and immigrants for these trainings aiming at bringing healing, wellness, and trauma-relevant interventions. Qualified and licensed trainers conduct the sessions. Share the news in Bowling Green and nearby communities.
Let's together C.A.R.E. and stay informed for Community Empowerment!
WOMEN EMPOWERMENT SERIES WITH UWSK
Women Empowerment is one of the constants at CAREUSTZ. The current program series is sponsored by our partners, United Way of Southern Kentucky to support women in refugee and immigrant communities to build capacities to become contributing members of the society. The kick-off will be on September 22, 2023, with lessons on PARENTING in the U.S. Context. The lessons provide a space for learning, healing, socializing, cooking, and attaining wellness goals.
Let’s join forces to support women for a better future in our communities.
