Beautiful Quote

The life-coaching workshop was life changing for me. Honestly! I had a challenge with opening up, but the facilitator was patient with me and all attendees. I learned that the past will hold on to me as long as I hold on to it. I feel like I have been sleep walking for 35 years. I learned that I have the power to create new possibilities for my life

CEO, Handful of Pearls

I learned so much about the way in which my lack of participation has shaped my pessimistic view of gov’t and my community. I never really understood the different roles of the 3 branches of government. I feel empowered to be a part of the change that I want to see in my community. The C.A.N.I team really cares about community engagement. My life is forever changed and I will pay it forward by educating my son.

I have partnered with many organizations in the past to expand the reach in addressing disparaging issues that plague our community. C.A.N.I is truly one of a kind. This grass roots organization is committed to changing the trajectory of community members that are disheartened and disengaged.
