Peace and welcome to the USA very soon. I am Peace Activist teacher in California. I have 29 years of working for youth and families in California. I currently live in the Bay Area ( Sunnyvale Califronia very near San Francisco CA.) I am currently working on the Peace Concert Convergence for October 25,2009 called Woodstock 40th Anniversary in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. If you are in California you will not want to miss this Historical Mind Shift/Peace Shift event.

Jack I am also interested to learn more about your project or business called Inspire. I have worked for years to inspire hope and resilience in our youth in California. I have primarily worked to promote the California Peace Movement www.heartsandhandselders.com to stop the gang warfare and urban violence that is a serious problem in the Latino California youth communities. I have worked with elders and parents and community elected officials. I would be happy to meet you when you arrive in California. I am always interested in solutions that promote wellness and safety in our communities. Teresa R. Hernandez Hearts and Hands Elder and Padres Unidos California

Peace and Wellness are part of our shared Vision.
I look forward to learning about your program. Teresa R. Hernandez

Thank you for joining the group!

Hi Jack.... one of the comments we hear in our meetings regarding AOAND is how we can help with suicide prevention... I would so love to learn more about what you are doing and if there is any way that it can be co-promoted as we continue developing the AOAND project. I really look forward to learning more.
