Annual Women's Retreat Join us at our next Retreat! May 19, 2007 9AM -- 4PM GIANT Community Center, Camp Hill
|
Many refugee and immigrant women, faced with the stress of settling their family into a new environment, often neglect of have no time to meet their own needs. Medical studies have indicated that stress level is correlated to health problems such as stroke, heart attack, and cancer; therefore, it is important to create a supportive environment for the women to take care of themselves. The Women's Retreat offers an opportunity for the women to spend a day focusing on themselves while taking a break from their normal responsibilities. | ||
