“ 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 />

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 />

<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 />

Sue Endy,<br />
MSW, Parenting<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 />
In addition to <strong>the</strong> Foundation's direct service in parenting, it<br />

curriculum development.<br />
