"Today in school I got really mad at this other kid in my class. But I stopped and ignored him and I didn't get in trouble." - 3rd grader enrolled in his third year of our programming at .

This quote might seem really simple, but to this child this was a victory. This semester we have specifically focused on self control and choices. Each week we have students recite affirmations such as, "I can control my choices."

But repeatedly over the years we hear, "But I can't control myself. I have to fight. I don't care what happens."

To see students start to realize, "Yes! I can control my choices. I can make good choices. I don't have to experience negative consequences," is a big victory.

Choices change futures and we are so grateful to have the opportunity to help them make good choices that will turn into habits for a lifetime.

We are so grateful to The Ridgecliff Foundation for their generous support of our social emotional learning programming this school year. Because of their support, each week students in 1st - 12th grade are learning to make choices that impact their future and their mental health in a positive way.

So far this semester, they have practiced mindfulness, discussed positive coping skills, personal values and have learned to identify and discuss emotions with their peers.

Thank you to The Ridgecliff Foundation for helping Inspire Hope create opportunities for Cleveland's youth to improve their mental health now and for the future.

This week we wrapped up the Built to Bloom program at Norma Herr. During the last 8 weeks women have created vision boards, reflected on challenges in their life and how they overcame them and discussed their short and long term goals. Through discussion, music and art we meditated on who God says we are and the peace we find in seeking Him.

Thank you also to for discussing resource needs with the ladies as well.

We look forward to serving the ladies again in the future at YWCA Greater Cleveland Norma Herr Women’s Center.
