Faith House Visit

On September 13, 2011 Kaity's Way visited Faith House once again to share Kaity's Story with the residents. This was an adult group of women that have exited an abusive relationship and are doing what they can to get their lives back on track for them and their children. Keep on steppin ladies because your are going to make it! Kudo's to you for making that difficult and all important first step to a life of No More abuse.

100% of the Faith House residents that heard Kaity's Story this time believe that it would be helpful if more adults were educated about Teen Dating Violence and believe they would recognize the signs of a violent teen dating relationship.

There was also one question..... Howe did we start your non-profit organization..... with lots of Passion and we used the Book "How to form a Non Profit Corporation" published by Nolo's.... this book is worth its weight in gold if you are wanting to start a non profit.

Peoria Accelerated HS 090611

Kaity's Way was invited back to Peoria Accelerated HS, Peoria, Az to share Kaity's Story with Ms. Lozano's Character Education class. Kaity's Story kicked off the Relationship section of the lesson plan for her class.

The students were very respectful and patient throughout the presentation. They had some good questions also. The surveys did not have any questions to answer in the blog, but we would like to share some of their intellectual comments.....

Some answers to the question, "What message(s), if any, did you receive from Kaity's Story?

"Take action before anything happens"

"To be aware of how people act while dating etc."

"It pays to just say something"

"Be careful in your relationships"

"Know the signs of abuse"

"Watch out for the red flags"

"Violence is wrong"

"Don't think you can fix everything"

Then there was this independent comment that is encouraging "Know you informed me a lot on what I didn't know"

Kudos to the students of PAHS! You get it! Soooooooooooo exercise P.E.A.C.E. in your relationships, Take Care and Be Safe! Go Bulldogs!
