The Team

T.O.G.E.T.H.E.R. is a program created by T.R.U.E. Diversity, a civic & social organization dedicated to advocating for diversity, equity and equality based in Taunton, in collaboration with Raising Multicultural Kids - Easton and C.O.R., Lauren DeSousa’s personal training program. The T.O.G.E.T.H.E.R. Youth Program is designed to empower our young people to love themselves, others and our community. It was adapted from Lauren DeSousa’s personal training program, C.O.R. utilizing similar approaches and theories, the program harnesses Mindfulness Practices and Cognitive Behavioral Theory to educate youth and support them in their decision making, emotional regulation, and responses to adversity. Through team building activities and foundations of sport and movement, youth learn valuable life skills, strengthen relationship building skills and foster strong qualities of character, work ethic, reliability, and leadership. The T.O.G.E.T.H.E.R Youth Program was built on the fundamental belief that physical activity strengthens the mind and body and can be learned to be appreciated by anyone.
