“ I <strong>learned</strong> <strong>that</strong> <strong>fighting</strong> <strong>is</strong> <strong>not</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>best</strong> way to solve a conflict.<br />

I also <strong>learned</strong> <strong>that</strong> adrenalin gives you lots of energy. Tension<br />

begins to build, your heart beat increases, <strong>the</strong>n breathing rate<br />

increases and <strong>the</strong>n you get STRONG. I <strong>learned</strong> <strong>that</strong> people<br />

with guns are <strong>not</strong> always safe. I <strong>learned</strong> <strong>that</strong> if you see a gun,<br />

tell a parent.”<br />

SAVE<br />

AVP‘s SAVE Program teaches kids to understand <strong>the</strong>ir feelings and realize how feelings can affect behaviors.<br />

It fur<strong>the</strong>r teaches <strong>the</strong>m to get <strong>the</strong> feelings and behavior under control to avoid a violent outcome.<br />

David Olmo <strong>is</strong> <strong>the</strong> Director of SAVE (Student Anti-<br />

Violence Education), a program of <strong>the</strong> Anti-Violence<br />

Partnership of Philadelphia (AVP). <strong>Green</strong> <strong>Tree</strong><br />

<strong>Community</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Foundation has funded AVP since<br />

2006. AVP's SAVE Program teaches kids to understand<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir feelings and realize how feelings can affect<br />

behaviors. It fur<strong>the</strong>r teaches <strong>the</strong>m to get <strong>the</strong> feelings<br />

and behavior under control to avoid a violent outcome.<br />

The SAVE Program <strong>is</strong> targeted to children 8-14 years<br />

of age and teaches violence prevention by using anger<br />

management, communication, problem solving, selfcontrol<br />

and o<strong>the</strong>r non-violent conflict resolution tools.<br />

Learning <strong>the</strong>re are many different ways to get around a<br />

violent or potentially violent situation <strong>is</strong> <strong>the</strong> key to th<strong>is</strong><br />

successful program, which <strong>is</strong> nationally as well as locally<br />

recognized.<br />

Conflict Resolution, Win/Win, Win/Lose and<br />

Lose/Lose are some of <strong>the</strong> topics David teaches student<br />

about. He makes <strong>the</strong>m laugh and feel comfortable in<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir own environment while talking and tackling <strong>the</strong><br />

“ My favorite lessons were<br />

3 Solutions to a Conflict<br />

because it gave students<br />

different options on how<br />

to solve a conflict.”<br />

<strong>is</strong>sues of violence and how to prevent situations.<br />

During one of h<strong>is</strong> classes a student talked about how he<br />

saw a gun at a friend's house but while tempted to touch<br />

it, refrained, remembering David's d<strong>is</strong>cussion on guns<br />

from a prior class. In a<strong>not</strong>her class, a d<strong>is</strong>cussion quickly<br />

turned to <strong>the</strong> possibility of a fight <strong>that</strong> was imminent.<br />

Talking through <strong>the</strong> <strong>is</strong>sues prevented <strong>the</strong> fight.<br />

.<br />

A<strong>not</strong>her tool <strong>that</strong> David uses with h<strong>is</strong> classes enhances<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir “Active L<strong>is</strong>tening” skills. There are many different<br />

ways to show and use Active L<strong>is</strong>tening skills he tells<br />

<strong>the</strong>m. Then he has <strong>the</strong>m role-play showing <strong>that</strong> <strong>the</strong>y<br />

understand and accept what a person says by reacting<br />

in nonverbal ways. To use verbal encouragement <strong>is</strong><br />

a<strong>not</strong>her tool <strong>that</strong> teaches: to use words such as “I<br />

understand.” Kids learn to ask relevant questions<br />

without interrupting, <strong>the</strong>n restate <strong>the</strong> person's most<br />

important thoughts and feelings in <strong>the</strong>ir own words to<br />

show <strong>the</strong>ir l<strong>is</strong>tening skills. With <strong>the</strong>se tools and o<strong>the</strong>rs,<br />

<strong>the</strong>y can make <strong>the</strong> person speaking more comfortable<br />

and <strong>the</strong>refore will keep <strong>the</strong>m engaged to talk more and<br />

<strong>not</strong> have situations escalate to violence.<br />

AVP was formerly known in <strong>the</strong> 80's as Families of<br />

Murder Victims (FMV), a victim ass<strong>is</strong>tance program<br />

<strong>that</strong> provided support for those <strong>that</strong> had lost a loved one<br />

to murder with individual and or family <strong>the</strong>rapy, group<br />

counseling in addition to advocacy. The early 90's<br />

brought a tremendous change for FMV when it was<br />

decided by <strong>the</strong> board of directors to expand its efforts<br />

and services to promote proactive activities and a change<br />

of name to Anti-Violence Partnership of Philadelphia.<br />

RESTORE THE HOPE IN HUMANKIND<br />

Against Violence<br />

Written by: Den<strong>is</strong>e Berte,<br />

Executive Director of <strong>the</strong> Liberty Center<br />

Linette <strong>is</strong> an adolescent from Sierra Leone. Linette<br />

was kidnapped by rebels at <strong>the</strong> age of thirteen. Linette<br />

saw her family brutally murdered. Linette was raped<br />

and paraded around her village naked. She was taken as<br />

one of <strong>the</strong> “wives” of <strong>the</strong> soldiers which included being<br />

gang raped, as well as working as a domestic slave for<br />

<strong>the</strong> men who were brutalizing her. The women were<br />

taken when <strong>the</strong> men raided and ravaged villages being<br />

forced to witness acts of violence against innocent victims,<br />

without reacting, as <strong>the</strong> leaders threatened <strong>that</strong> if<br />

<strong>the</strong>y cried <strong>the</strong>y would receive <strong>the</strong> same treatment.<br />

Linette was particularly cautious to avoid pregnancy as<br />

she saw o<strong>the</strong>r captives who witnessed <strong>the</strong> execution of<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir babies. After months, Linette was able to escape.<br />

As she was tattooed by <strong>the</strong> rebels, upon her return to<br />

her village she was attacked by <strong>the</strong> villagers who<br />

believed <strong>that</strong> she was a rebel. She was beaten and<br />

burned with hot plastic and ran to a refugee camp.<br />

Linette was kidnapped by rebels at <strong>the</strong> age of thirteen.<br />

Linette escaped to <strong>the</strong> United States, but had no documentation<br />

and was immediately jailed in Pennsylvania.<br />

She had no family or contacts in <strong>the</strong> US or an immigration<br />

lawyer. She had psychological symptoms and<br />

physical scars <strong>that</strong> remained a constant reminder of<br />

her traumatic experiences. She was <strong>not</strong> allowed to<br />

work by US immigration law and was ineligible for<br />

medical, social or psychological services due to her<br />

immigration status.<br />

The Liberty Center for Survivors of Torture, a <strong>Green</strong><br />

<strong>Tree</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Foundation funded program,<br />

works with newcomers like Linette who have been tortured<br />

in <strong>the</strong>ir country of origin and are seeking to<br />

start a new life in a safe place. The center provides<br />

direct services which include <strong>the</strong> coordination of legal,<br />

medical, psychological, and social services. The challenges<br />

<strong>that</strong> survivors face include lingu<strong>is</strong>tic <strong>is</strong>olation, documentation<br />

of <strong>the</strong>ir torture experiences, separation from <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

families as well as <strong>the</strong> every day needs of housing,<br />

employment, food shelter, in a political environment<br />

lhouse to Firehouse. See pages 7 & 8 for more details.<br />

▲<br />

<strong>that</strong> <strong>is</strong> at <strong>best</strong> indifferent and at worst, openly hostile to<br />

<strong>the</strong>m as immigrants.<br />

The center utilizes professional and lay volunteer services<br />

to provide all needs for over 150 clients with only 1.5 FTE<br />

staff. The Liberty Center also provides professional training<br />

and technical ass<strong>is</strong>tance to related service providers<br />

and has partnerships with 5 international programs.<br />

Due to Liberty Center intervention Linette was granted<br />

asylum and released from detention. She found safe<br />

housing with a group of women from her community<br />

and <strong>is</strong> currently studying at <strong>the</strong> community college<br />

level and working full time. She receives counseling<br />

and has had a consultation for a pro-bono scar removal<br />

by a local plastic surgeon. Through your support of<br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>Green</strong> <strong>Tree</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Foundation, you<br />

too can be an active positive force in <strong>the</strong> life of someone<br />

like Linette. Volunteers and contributions are<br />

always appreciated and restore <strong>the</strong> hope in humankind<br />

for victims of targeted violence. ■


Parenting Educator receives<br />

“Asset to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Community</strong>” Award!<br />

<strong>Green</strong> <strong>Tree</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Foundation <strong>is</strong> pleased to<br />

announce <strong>that</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir Parenting Educator, Sue Endy, MSW<br />

received an award from <strong>the</strong> Northwest E.P.I.C. (Equal<br />

Partners in Change) Stakeholders Group located in<br />

Germantown at <strong>the</strong> 2009 E.P.I.C. Stakeholder Summit<br />

Recognition Banquet on May 30, 2009. At dinner and awards<br />

ceremony, Nan Rhone, Director presented Sue Endy with <strong>the</strong><br />

“Asset to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Community</strong> Award” for her outstanding commitment<br />

and effort towards <strong>the</strong> Northwest E.P.I.C Stakeholders<br />

Group including <strong>the</strong> most recent Stay in School! <strong>Community</strong><br />

event for students and <strong>the</strong>ir families held on January 31st at<br />

<strong>the</strong> Dorothy Emanuel Recreation & Teen Center.<br />

The Foundation’s parenting program concentrates, of course,<br />

on children and families, based on <strong>the</strong> prem<strong>is</strong>e <strong>that</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>best</strong><br />

way to improve <strong>the</strong> health status of children <strong>is</strong> to help <strong>the</strong> parents<br />

develop good parenting skills so <strong>that</strong> for generations, children<br />

can grow up physically and emotionally healthy, schoolready,<br />

and prepared to become productive citizens. Parenting<br />

Education <strong>is</strong> also a<strong>not</strong>her way to help <strong>the</strong> parents and children<br />

in conflict resolutions. If adults and children can be helped<br />

early on <strong>the</strong>re would be less violence all toge<strong>the</strong>r. Sue does<br />

more than just parenting as conflict resolutions start as soon as<br />

a child begins to express <strong>the</strong>ir wants. Sometimes children need<br />

to learn <strong>that</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir wants aren't always going to be met. The<br />

positive reinforcement <strong>that</strong> Sue gives and teaches to young<br />

teen-parents and o<strong>the</strong>rs will carry <strong>the</strong>m fur<strong>the</strong>r into life than<br />

<strong>the</strong>y can imagine. Teaching a child <strong>not</strong> to grab something but<br />

to ask for it first will teach <strong>the</strong>m later in life <strong>the</strong>y need to use<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir words, <strong>not</strong> actions to get positive outcomes.<br />

Educator<br />

The Foundation’s Parenting Program reaches more than 950<br />

individuals and 24 organizations annually. According to Sue<br />

Endy, “Many parenting <strong>is</strong>sues are universal; however, some<br />

are unique to <strong>the</strong> gender of single parents; o<strong>the</strong>rs are unique<br />

to grandparents ra<strong>is</strong>ing grandchildren. The Foundation’s<br />

service area <strong>is</strong> so diverse <strong>that</strong> I continuously reevaluate <strong>the</strong><br />

resources available and develop a comprehensive plan to deal<br />

with whatever <strong>the</strong> specific <strong>is</strong>sue <strong>is</strong>.”<br />
