Our impactful programs have served over 1,900 incarcerated youth and adults, low-income high school students and staff, refugee women and girls, and seniors. The Dharma Project proudly partners with the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice, Atlanta Public Schools, Purpose Built Schools, Refugee Women's Network, the Georgia Department of Corrections, Fulton and Dekalb County Sheriff's Office, and the Decatur Housing Authority.
The Dharma Project provides mindfulness and yoga to communities and organizations that experience chronic stress and trauma. Our trauma-informed curriculum recognizes the inequities and challenges faced by the populations served and seeks to center the voices, needs, and leaders of those communities. The goal of our programming is to create life-long habits of mindfulness and an emphasis on wellness among high-risk groups. When these practices become a lifestyle, our participants can overcome their trauma, utilize tools for self-regulation and stress management, and achieve positive brain/body development.
The Dharma Project is a 501(c)(3) organization, deeply rooted in Atlanta. Our philosophy is that everyone, despite what traumas and barriers they’ve faced, will have access to tools that support their physical and mental health. We bring tools of yoga & meditation into the lives of those disproportionately denied access to wellness & healing. Diversity, equity, inclusion, justice, and belonging is why The Dharma Project exists, and this commitment is reflected in every aspect of our impactful programs from providing yoga to men, women and youth experiencing incarceration in prisons, correctional facilities and detention centers, to students studying in underserved and low-income schools, as well as refugee women and girls, and senior citizens residing in housing authorities. Our yoga teacher certification in prisons program exhibits our “full circle” approach to not only educate incarcerated individuals, but to equip them with life skills and employment opportunities to “give back” and confidently serve the greater Atlanta community.
SINCE 2016, DHARMA PROJECT HAS BROUGHT YOGA AND MINDFULNESS TO OVER 1,900 PEOPLE.
