The mission of The Children's Room is to help grieving
children, teens, and families in our communities to go on living and
loving fully. We imagine a world where death is recognized as an organic
part of life. There are no societal obstacles in the natural expression
of grief. Children and their families who have suffered the death of a
loved one are embraced by a safe and caring community that they can rely
upon to help them cope with the grieving process. These children are seen
as models and teachers to others in reaffirming the fullness of life. The
Children's Room is dedicated to realizing this vision.
The mission of the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute is
clear; to create and support an environment where families can live in
Peace and Unity.
Our Goals and Objectives are three
fold:
(1.) Schools: To develop programs and activities that teach and instill
the values of peace and enrich the lives of young people.
(2.) Families: To assist and empower survivors of homicide victims with
tools that not only rebuild their lives but also their communities;
through Education, Collaboration, and Policy Advocacy.
(3.) Community: To inform and educate the public about the causes and the
consequences of violence on the individual, the family and the community,
while transforming the community into an environment where
young people are valued by adults and by their peers the for their
peacemaking efforts.
