PURPOSE:

The purpose of this organization is to enhance relationships and well-being through charitable, scientific, literary, mathematical, technological, and educational initiatives.


MISSIONAL APPROACH:

We have two approaches for our CDC, they are ACE (Adverse Childhood/Community Experiences) and ABCD (Assets Based Community Development).

  • ACE describes all types of abuse, neglect, and other potentially traumatic experiences that occur to people and communities. According to a research study by Kaiser Permanente between 1995 and 1997, 60% of our population was infected by ACE.
  • The ABCD model means building community from the inside out to release human capacity. ABCD supports the idea of strengthening human development by asking questions to reveal the patterns and rhythms of relationships, resources, opportunities, and experiences.

We offer these two models of collaborative, integrated, cross-pollinated efforts to make the world a better place.
