Working alongside parents, schools, and community organizations in South Los Angeles, our programs raise awareness about trauma and its lasting effects on children. Empower Training Institute (ETI) and its partners provide trainings.

We recognize that every student is unique, with their own strengths, challenges, and preferred ways of learning. That’s why we provide personalized learning experiences, incorporating multiple modalities to support individual needs, goals, and learning styles.
