About the Book

JOY What is it? It is strength of self. To me it is learning EARLY to depend on GOD for calm, peace and courage in life, to be grateful for what is, the best we can, and to change things, to possess the calm and peace that need to be possessed to figure out what needs to be changed to make life better, for ourselves and others, and with God’s help, to make the changes.

About the Author

Elizabeth Wiley is the lead on a team to help children in foster care, group homes, juvenile probation, and juvenile immigration and refugee camps find peace and healing to grow into their best persons. To find healing from the loneliness, bitterness, anger they have at a reality that left them in their situation. Following standards utilized in previous programs for high risk youth, the teams created work books for each youth to be given. Volunteers, mostly among older youth and from community resources go through the materials to find peace and healing with the horrors that befall our children of the world. These projects are FREE from our nth48.org website instruction materials…..we raise our own funds for programs we donate, other programs may contact us for how to utilize the materials and where to purchase them for use in your own programs. As little as one workshop book as aa guide and the purchase of lined notebooks and a pen or pencil for reach participant is all it costs for any program to use the materials.
