🌟 Honoring the Legacy of the Selma to Montgomery March 🌟

The Selma to Montgomery March was a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement, marking a decisive shift in the fight for voting rights. Led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., this historic march showcased the power of nonviolent protest against injustice.

We invite you to delve deeper into Dr. King’s enduring influence and heritage at thekingcenterinstitute.org.

In honor of the sacrifices made in Selma, let’s commit to and continue the fight for justice and equality. 🗳️

Join us in making a difference!

The anniversary of Maui fires is approaching. If you know any keiki struggling with grief, there is a 3-hour, day-camp program where keiki can laugh, cry, play, honor their person or people who have died, connect with others who "get it", and take a break from the grief that weighs them down.

The organizers have added a camp on July 30 in Lahaina at Kaanapali Shores Resort because the Aug 1-4 camp at Four Seasons Maui is FULL (https://experiencecamps.org/experience-camps-maui).

Depression in children and adolescents commonly presents itself as irritable mood. It's important to help our keiki process their emotions during this difficult time.

If you have any questions please email Beth Ricciardi, LCSW at beth@experiencecamps.org. Mahalo! 🙏🏽
