Why Poder (Power)?
Many of us, as immigrants have experienced a sense of loss once we moved to another country. Each month, caregivers from our community come together for Retreats to learn, grow, and gain strength so that we can be safe, strong, and empowered caregivers to our community’s children while we continue to face the chronic stress of being an Immigrant in this country.
CPR, is currently offering three professional certifications:
Acknowledging Trauma, a curriculum developed for caregivers.
Yoga Teacher Training for caregivers
Abriendo Puertas, a curriculum developed by and for Latinx immigrant parents and caregivers
All our certifications are conducted in Spanish and led by Immigrant Spanish Speakers. To obtain professional knowledge of high quality, we partner up with Cultivando, the University of Denver, and Inner Peace Yoga Therapy.
Listening
Our shared work focused on listening the need for resources to our monolingual Spanish speaking “comadres y compadres” throughout our rural region. We distribute herbal therapeutics when in need, organize meal trails for our people in extreme medical conditions, and provide food boxes from natural stores for those that require a special diet in order to achieve their highest health.
In addition to our in-person certifications, we provide online educational gatherings to support Immigrant caregivers in health, wellness, and resources workshops.
