MAINE

KIVULINI AFRO TRAUMA INFORMED YOGA

Kivulini is a safe healing space operated by Immigrants and people of color to bring trauma-informed yoga and movements to one another and the community.


The space hosts a bi-weekly support group for new Mainers that guides us through the complex and necessary healing process within a community of survivors.  


 The programs also tell stories that contribute to understanding African immigrants’ experiences of violence and mental illnesses and the role of stigma during the help-seeking process. 


Our yoga studio is donation based to make it more accessible to more people.

OUR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

COMMUNITY OUTREACH

Our community outreach works hand in hand with other organizations and agencies to bridge the cultural gap and educate our communities about the services available to them in Maine. Our approach is participating, connecting, partnering, and contributing to a sustainable livelihood and a safe and happy society. We are currently working with the following agencies;

  • Preble street to Provide targeted outreach to foreign nationals (e.g., immigrants, asylum seekers, temporary, seasonal workers, resettled refugees, and persons without status), communities, and organizations in Portland to increase awareness and identify Victims of Trafficking.
  •   Prevention Action Change to empower the community with skills to counter harassment, assault, and abuse. 
  • Sea Change Yoga  to bring trauma-informed and multilingual yoga to the new Mainers

SCHOOL PROGRAMS

We work with schools to support and encourage teenagers to stay and succeed in school, address girls' health and well-being, and foster girls' agency and confidence to help them engage in school activities and pursue their dreams. 

 The program also provides tools for assertive communication, boundary setting, self-care, and self-defense. 


In spring, we provide self-empowerment classes for ESOL young women at the south Portland school.
