WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"Irreducible Grace Foundation conducted a self-care workshop at my school, and their work left a lasting impact on students and staff. Every IGF member embodied pose, yet each person brought his/her own energy and knowledge. Breathing exercises, team building activities, and reflective moments gave us what we (students and staff) all needed, self-assurance and compassion for others. Students were heard; they walked away with their own poems and affirmations. I cannot thank IGF enough for their dedication and continuous work for youth and adults."
