By Kimberly Moore Care Caf茅 Director As we continue our efforts to support community awareness around Domestic Violence prevention and critical work with vulnerable populations, on Wednesday, Dec. 8, 2021, Wurzweiler鈥檚 Care Caf茅 co-hosted a Wellness Check-in gathering with the members of W.A.R.M (We All Really Matter).

Stephanie McGraw

Founder and CEO Stephanie McGraw and her gracious staff coordinators welcomed the Care Caf茅 team for another collaboration with the goal of engaging program participants served by W.A.R.M, during their most vulnerable times one year ago, to check in on their progress, assess their current levels of stabilization and offer support and resources as needed.

Captain Alvarez of NYPD 32nd Precinct in Harlem offered remarks regarding the successful partnership with W.A.R.M.

In a room filled wall to wall with members and their families, McGraw 鈥渨elcomed members home.鈥� The event guest speakers included representatives from the New York District Attorney鈥檚 office in Harlem, New York Police Department (NYPD) Domestic Violence Unit, and local faith leaders who offered words of encouragement and information about strategies to support victims, survivors, and their families seeking to disconnect from danger and connecting to help in order to eliminate vicious cycles of violence. Care Caf茅 team members provided onsite confidential one-on-one consultations for participants who requested these services. Accolades are an order for the Care Caf茅 Team Interns. Tina T., the evening鈥檚 keynote speaker, presented 鈥淔rom Adversity to Resilience!鈥� The crowd was attentive and engaged with many outbursts of laughter and an eagerness for open group sharing. Allysha B. delivered an inspiring spoken word poem about community social justice awareness. Olivia B. supported the organizing of the event with space setup and played a critical role in completing intake forms for members seeking one-on one-consultation with Care Caf茅 after our presentation!
