MISSIONS

 

Mission of PeaceWorx, an online magazine and blog committed to peace in self-expression:  

  

PeaceWorx Magazine provides a supportive and creative forum for adults and children to express themselves peacefully.

  

Mission of KidsWorx, a magazine by and for kids and their adult supporters:

    

The mission of KidsWorx Magazine is to empower children by giving them a written and multimedia voice in this world.  I believe we need to hear from children and kids need to voice out to us.  I created KidsWorx to provide children a voice but also as an acknowledgement that inheriting the planet as it is right now might be a stressful thing for them.  I believe such a magazine can provide safe space for children to voice out their own views on this subject and many others, but most of all, by attending to this meta- stress, I believe that KidsWorx provides an outlet for kids to be heard and listened to by other children and adults in their world, and as a result, I am hopeful it will provide healing for them. 

 

Mission of KidsWorx Classroom:

 

​The mission of KidsWorx Classroom is educational transformation:  to transform school so it becomes a safe haven for children.  I started a magazine designed to provide kids with creative and social support - an emotional safe haven - to express themselves.  I adapted KidsWorx for classroom publishing to inspire children to write and otherwise create in school, where they can see their work published on a safe online website and in booklet form and hopefully be further inspired to write and create.
