CPW Wants YOU!


So, on Thursday morning, this feminist drove his tired self from the concrete Boogie Down BX to the lush and green Reading, PA to meet with some amazing activists at Camp PeaceWorks, a project of Berks Women in Crisis.

While there, we talked about creating change from within by uncovering our truths and encouraging others to find theirs.

We did an activity called "The Clearing" that I learned from Easton Mountain, which they borrowed from Cafe Gratitude in CA.

We also created personal mission statements from an acivity that was borrowed from the Mankind Project and Soulful Connection.

We prepared ourselves in many ways for the upcoming 5-day training at the end of June, and we are ready!

To see some of the exciting work CPW staff, volunteers and youth leaders did, check out this video:

   Did you know that CPW is looking for more   
   male teens to join this summer's training?

  1. I enjoyed the video. It’s so important to guide our youth into positive environments this is a great start. I live by a statement “Doing Well by Doing good”!
