In our years as a non-profit one of our initiatives has been addressing food insecurity among Senior Citizens. TIIAI has provided a monthly luncheon for over five years that included a full lunch including fresh produce and fruit for the Seniors. TIIAI has collaborated with other organizations to produce a Women’s Circle. The purpose was to address the trauma many have faced in their growth and development. TIIAI is currently supporting a Women’s and Men’s Shelters through monthly donations of food, clothing and other items. The Health and Life Coaching program helps you to evolve to a better you. It will assist you in realizing that being still and going within are the first steps to identifying who you are!
On this journey of self-discovery which has many facets the coaching provides practices that help you to move forward in areas you didn’t believe you could do. The health and life coaching program focus is to demonstrate techniques for you to practice such as...quiet time, self (meditation), journaling, planning through (vision board and character development chart), goal setting for the areas of life, and ways for implementation of routines to keep you moving forward on your life journey.
Our target population is economically challenged individuals, and families who are unemployed or under-employed. Our mission is to ensure that all individuals will have an opportunity to create a successful and viable lifestyle as their decision-making process expands and as they travel through their life experiences.
