Dear Friend,
I am riding 38 miles tin the Tour de Barnstable cycling event to benefit Calmer Choice, a universal mindfulness-based prevention program committed to teaching young people how to effectively and safely manage stress and resolve conflict so that they live happy, healthy and successful lives. Calmer Choice's goal is to provide skills that will diminish the risk of violence, substance abuse, and other self-destructive behaviors.
Here is a short video that explains how Calmer Choice fosters healthier communities!
