THE CHILDREN SHALL LEAD THEM

b2ap3_thumbnail_SMALL-The-children-shall-lead-logo-12.5.2011.jpgPFW was so happy to  learn about  Ms. LEROYNA EDWARDS, who is the Executive Director of The Children Shall Lead Them Productions in Columbus, OH,  through her Grant Application “Health is W.E.A.L.T.H.S. Empowerment Thru Arts.”  She has been engaged and in-service to the most needy children and their parents in the Pointdexter Community.  You can find her using her skills and talents at the Beatty Recreation Center where she has been instrumental in creating community programs such as Circle 77 Community (Food) Co-op, and the Joyful Living Wellness Institute where community members can learn about nutritian, do yoga, and learn how a healthful lifestyle  can change behavior in a positive manner to empower you  to take control of your own life.   She has started after-school programs where none existed before and  has spearheaded a program where elderly residents of the Near Eastside  can now  apply for grocery delivery.    Her youth development program offers health and wellness education by creatively integrating art education  in a way that  highlights how a healthy lifestyle and preventative activities allow people to  achieve a healthy, successful life through self-care and right thinking.
