Open the door to success! Empower youth with emotional tools to stay safe from bullies, drugs, violence, and other self-destructive behaviors!While feeding the homeless with Mother Mary Ann Wright, Stephanie Mann saw the consequences of child abuse (mental, physical, and sexual) and neglect. Over the years, drug addicts and former inmates have asked for help. They didnt know how to turn their lives around and become productive citizens. Mann worked with Pastor Flemon Henry and formed support groups in Oakland, California. She saw how abuse and neglect created angry men who escaped into drugs and often abused women. Many of our homeless citizens never learned how to discover their inner power to develop their identity, self-confidence, and ability to stay centered. As a result of the support groups, homeless men got jobs or woke up and entered drug rehab. We can empower youth! Stephanie has realized that most parents demonstrate and share healthy values with children. Neglected or abused adults never learned how to raise centered children. This book gives adults and youth the tools to help one another. Every human being has the inner power to develop courage, character, and a self-protective conscience. These basic tools help youth make healthy choices and connect with others so they can reach their God-given potential.
