The Art of yoga Project

We are leaders in the treatment and rehabilitation of justice-involved girls by offering gender-responsive, trauma-informed, culturally-responsive, and strengths-based programming.
Our mission is to lead at-risk, exploited and incarcerated girls toward accountability to self, others, and community by providing practical tools to effect behavioural change. We send specially trained yoga teachers, creative arts and writing educators into facilities to deliver our mindfulness-based curriculum.
We serve marginalized girls in short and long-term detention and rehabilitation centers as well as in substance abuse recovery settings, agencies serving CSEC (commercially sexually exploited children), Level 14 facilities (for girls with high psychiatric needs), alternative high schools and high schools in gang-impacted communities.
