A team of community leaders has pulled back the curtain on a new space designed to benefit homeless youths.
Five members of Rock Countyâs Leadership Development Academy, in coordination with Project 16:49, recently revealed a fully renovated relaxation room for girls residing at The Robin House, a shelter for homeless teenage girls.
The room, previously used for storage, has been converted into an open space for reading, yoga, meditation and relaxationâcomplete with books, a decorative water fountain, giant rugs, room-darkening shades, blankets and chairs.
âOur residents have experienced a variety ofâand often multipleâtraumas,â said Tammy DeGarmo, executive director of Project 16:49, a nonprofit that serves homeless and unaccompanied teens in Rock County. âMost struggle with depression and anxiety that at times can be debilitating. Having a dedicated calming space like this is a valuable contribution to their healing process.â
