Choose2Luv, Inc. Partnering with the CIAA and Coca-Cola Bottling CO. Consolidated to Provide Empowerment Training to College Students
Charlotte, NC, February 08, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Choose2Luv, Inc., a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization, is partnering with the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) and Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated to offer Youth Empowerment Training to 48 select college campus leaders. The training program is designed to equip young people with cognitive skills to help them survive various types of conflict, whether that is conflict with peers, strangers, or law enforcement. The training is called "Choose2Luv," because it inspires participants to make empowered choices through a belief paradigm of self-love and self-worth, as well as, respect and value of others. The training will take place on Saturday, February 24, at The Westin Charlotte Hotel during the CIAA annual basketball tournament.
“We are excited to partner with the CIAA and Coca-Bottling Co. Consolidated to deliver transformational training to young college campus leaders,” says Derek Ross, Executive Director for Choose2Luv. “The CIAA and Coke understand the value of teaching our young people to manage conflict in a positive way, one that leads to personal safety and overall well-being. In this current powder keg environment, it is crucial that young people know how to de-escalate potential conflicts before they blow up into life-threatening situations.”
