Our Crowning Curls Workshops, specifically designed for foster and adopted children of color and their caregivers, are made possible through grants from Aetna Insurance, Oklahoma City Community Foundation (OCCF), and the Sarkeys Foundation. These workshops, carefully curated to address common needs, challenges, and best practices, play a pivotal role in promoting healing, bonding, and connection. Through these partnerships our expert facilitators create safe and immersive learning environments, enabling the community to deeply understand and embrace the crucial aspects of ethnic hair and skin care in a group learning environment. We are immensely grateful for the support of our sponsors, whose contributions empower us to offer these transformative experiences, fostering personal growth and cultural pride among our participants.
