This is a group session that we are continuing to facilitate with different groups within the multiple cities, that have Adults that are in counseling, Returning Citizens, Family members who are victims of Violence, especially violence resulting in fatalities, or life-changing events.
We have now expanded programmatic services to include young adults in underserved communities navigating through school, family, and life obstacles, and even those with goals to pursue a college athletic career, trade and vocational careers, and any other career path!
Colleagues are best known as business/office partners, or those who have common goals working together to see them manifest. While changing the narrative of how these adults begin to see themselves in group settings of empowerment, these group sessions are an attempt to create peer support and empathy within a community of individuals striving to reach certain common milestones and aspirations. In group sessions we are looking to address eight principles and particular strengths that will give each individual an opportunity to achieve their maximum potential. These principles, having a positive impact on their experience with the social determinants of health, are known as the Optimal Opportunity Octagon.
