|Recurring Event (See all)

An event every week that begins at 6:00 pm on Wednesday, repeating until December 21, 2018

For newcomer and immigrant Spanish speaking women
A space to help us and grow together (for women of all ages)

This is a weekly program that provides a safe and friendly space that permits newcomers and immigrant Spanish speaking women to increase self-awareness, self-care and community connection. Activities build women’s skills and knowledge to cope with every day stress of settlement and integration through making craft, meditation and mindfulness exercises, emotional literacy and other alternative ways to support wellness. Participants connect to one another, meet guest speakers from partner agencies, learn about community and employment resources and explore opportunities for personal and professional development. Registration is required and childcare is available

We offer:

  • A safe and friendly space that permits self awareness, self care and self acceptance
  • Activities of self awareness through art, meditation (mindfulness) and emotional tools
