I just read the entire book. It is excellent. I quote from the book: “Centered people are less likely to be victims because they have self-worth and self-awareness to demonstrate respect for themselves and others. They draw on their inner core of strength to guide their choices in life.” It sums it up.

“We use the book “Empowerment Parenting” steps to teach activities for teenagers with the courses in the Juvenile Detention House by
Taipei Youth Corner (TFCF).”
Neal Jin-Sian Lin, Specialist│Research Development Division Social Work Department
“When I read the book, I was inexplicably touched by the author who never meant to self-destruct herself even she has been through a tough time. Instead, she helps more teenagers and adults with her self-worth and strength. It’s not an easy job.
During the service process, I always consider how to systematically help teenagers who have problems with bullying, domestic violence, child abuse, drugs, and gangs. Luckily, with the guidance of the book, I have more confidence in leading those teenagers.
I have been trying to combine the steps in this book with the courses in the Juvenile Detention House to gradually lead those teenagers to be self-conscious, self-protection and learning to deal with difficulties. To my surprise, I received the positive feedback from those teenagers in the Juvenile Detention House. We started to have interactions with each other during the course and they also memorized the key points. What an amazing to see those changes. I owe it to the author who puts lots of efforts to help people like us and also thank TFCF for introducing such a great book to our frontline staffs.”
Racher, Director Chang, Taipei Youth Corner (TFCF)

WHAT MAKES THIS PROGRAM DIFFERENT? Stephanie Mann has been a crime and violence prevention specialist and consultant working with criminal justice agencies, politicians, police and citizen groups since 1976. She has helped city leaders strengthen families, support youth and restore community peace. Now, any city can strengthen families. Fear and anger grows when police assume too much power. When neighbors take ownership of neighborhood safety, they reduce social isolation, fear and PREVENT youthful bad behavior. Involved neighbors can build trust, restore hope, solve problems and help create community PEACE. The imbalance of power led to violence in Ferguson MO and Baltimore MD and many other cities. Demonstrations across America exposed the breakdown between citizens and police.
