very quick update~

I may
have been away attaining new certifications and gaining to experiences but, I
certainly was not idle.
In June,
I was in California where I attained my Soul Coachingr accreditation. An amazing skill and very much in line with
the work I do professionally, but more importantly with those impacted by
bullying. July, I travelled to Spain in
order to take my Camino de Santiago de Compostella. If you’re interested in learning more about
my experience visit http://carleana-csc.blogspot.ca/ You’re welcome
to share this with others too.
While I was away, I learned ASOAB’s nomination for
the Innovation Community Pillar Award did not make the finals. While that is unfortunate news for us, the
fact remains we were nominated and that is amazing. Congratulations to the finalist and best of
luck in November.
Also, ASOAB
has officially become a registered non-profit organization. This gain will allow us to move further ahead
in our plans. We’ve had so many
organizations and people interested in what we do, so this should open more
doors. The next administrative step will
to apply for registered charity status; but one step at a time.
I continue to meet with organizations that are very
interested in putting the ASOAB program in their format. It is my hope that ASOAB will soon be running
a full fall program as well as several workshops over the next few months.
From a community perspective we’ve had a few personal donations
come in which I’ll share more about later.
As well, I had responded to a news paper article on another child loss to
suicide related to bullying, and I submitted my thoughts. I have received
positive feedback as well; it has opened some amazing new doors for us.
Hopefully you are able to open this Block Parent link http://www.thecommunityfocus.com/
as my response was included in their current issue of "The Community
Focus" on page 12.
It is also my goal to have our first newsletter prepared and
published by the first of September.
If you have any questions or concerns; or would like more information
about ASOAB, please do not hesitate to contact me.
