The Cause
For many girls who find themselves in programs such as Dayspring, it all began when they were just 3 or 4 years old. A father, an uncle, a grandfather whom they adore - how is a child expected to know that this is not love? A stepfather who threatens the little girl with harming her mother if she ever tells. When this little girl turns 8 or 9 or 10, then the stories begin to be pieced together ... if there is anyone who is there to listen, to pay attention. How many more years would have passed before anyone does anything?
When something is "done", it almost always involve removing the child from everything she knows, and she is passed from one institution to the next to the next to the next. Until a few, very few, too few, find themselves at Dayspring. A place that is too good to be true.
In this new reality that is too good to be true, the girl is told that she is safe and she has choices.

The power of Habits: I think therefore I am
We are excited to be launching MOSAIK's Ecosystem with Dayspring as the beneficiary; Bellyarmor as the Ecosystem Partner; and 3rillion as the GDA (graphic doodle art) creator.
MOSAIK, Dayspring and Belly Armour share one fundamental belief - we all deeply and passionately believe in the individual's imperative for a wholesome life. In November, the MOSAIK team spent an incredible week with Dayspring on the topic of understanding how habits are formed, why it is so difficult to give up habits, and most importantly, how to build enduring new habits of mind as one means of transcending the consequences of abuse. |
