What a wonderful afternoon! I was honored by receiving an award from an organization called,  "A Place Called Home" that provides educational and mentoring services, in addition to music and arts for children in south central Los Angeles. They honored me for the work I have done with teen girls and for my book, "Exactly As I Am" on girls and self-esteem. The luncheon was given at the Beverly Hills Hotel and was just beautiful. The theme was all about "Girl Power" and we were treated to some musical performances by some of the girls who are serviced by the organization. "A Place Called Home" (www.apch.org) is amazing and I encourage you to check them out. Thank you for this honor and for nurturing our young people!
