STAFFORD - Realize Your Beauty Day is a day dedicated to young people helping young people respect their body and inner beauty. It is a day to celebrate what makes each of us uniquely beautiful. The event is sponsored by Realize Your Beauty, Inc. and a group of area advocates. Beauty does not come in size small fits all and self-esteem need not be dependent on body size. Too many children and adolescents struggle to maintain a positive body image. The rise of life-threatening eating disorders and youth who hate their body size is alarming. The media glorification of ultra thin people has magnified the problem. Bullying of people of size continues at alarming rates. Young people need to be empowered
to realize their worth and beauty no matter their size. Parents can be a positive force in this journey of self-affirmation. Join in a celebration of real beauty and promoting positive body image. Come and learn, affirm and share the power. The event features poetry slamming, dance, drama and art projects. Help stand up for people everywhere who feel they are not good enough. Take the Realize Your Beauty pledge. Parents, support your children to believe in themselves. The event, open to all, is Friday, April 15, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Stafford Community Center, Buckley Highway (Rt. 190), Stafford Springs. For more information, contact Deidriene Knowlton at 860-916-0769.
