The Mindful Futures Initiative recently held a certification ceremony for incarcerated youth in Kern County, celebrating their progress in mindfulness training. The initiative, led by a team of six instructors, teaches youth valuable skills like breathwork, self-affirmation, and emotional regulation. These tools help them cope with stress and focus on personal growth. The program has expanded to all youth detention centers in the county, offering participants a chance to continue their mindfulness journey and work on future goals.
