Programs for September 11 Families

“The class helped me know where I want to go next. It reminded me that anything is possible in life.”

CREATIVE INSIGHT: TAKING THE NEXT STEP
In February 2003 Athena Katsaros and Julia Romaine launched Creative Insight: Taking the Next Step, a program for individuals who lost family members on September 11, 2001.

For over 200 survivors of September 11 discovering their creativity has been a path to getting past sorrow, darkness, and the profound loss they felt after losing a loved one four years ago.

Creative Insight:

• Offers tools for tapping into each participant’s full creative potential to live a more fulfilling life.
• Is based on the acclaimed Stanford Graduate School of Business program, Personal Creativity in Business, developed by Professor Michael Ray and his colleagues and taught there for over 20 years
• Is taught by a team of leaders in several locations on the East Coast.

The Art of Living: Creating a Joyful Life
After two years of breakthroughs for the participants in Creative Insight, Athena and Julia developed a second class for graduates of this program: TheArt of Living: Creating a Joyful Life.This advanced course:

• Invites participants to identify a life dream
• Shows how to take steps to realize that dream.
• Explores what brings joy and meaning to their lives
• Helps them identify and work with their allies in realizing their dreams

These two innovative programs are sponsored by Tuesday’s Children, a non-profit dedicated to bringing joy back into the lives of people who lost family members on September 11.
