| Description Program Srvc Accom | Farm Olympics; this program is focused on positive youth development and resiliency. The funding would allow for a growth in organizational capacity that gives the ability to carry out programs in Edgecombe county that address toxic stress. Toxic stress is an ongoing reaction from the stress response systems. Children in the area face unrelenting toxic stress due to weight of institutional racism, lack of resources, and general lack of opportunities. The farm provides a positive outlet where the children can learn to deal with their stress in a healthy way that could lead to growth in self-regulation and help foster resilience. Freedom Organization would also like to continue and expand the AG Athlete Camp. This encompasses agriculture, athletics, youth development, and youth resiliency. This program introduces the counties' youth to agriculture. They are taught life skills, such as growing their own food, which could lead to economic opportunities and a healthier lifestyle. There are also opportunities for the children to perform physical activities on the farm as a workout and to work on their chosen sports. Additionally, children are taught and partake in yoga and meditation. The goal with this is to promote a healthy mind and to support their emotional well-being. These techniques will help the children to face the toxic stress that comes from natural disasters, COVID-19, and lack of resources. Through this camp and OSS, Freedom Organization seeks to address the childhood trauma in Edgecombe county in non-traditional ways by enabling youth to cope with and grow from the adverse childhood experiences they disproportionality face. | DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt |
