Hi, We’re CoCo.
Connection Coalition, affectionately known as CoCo, provides
organizations with paid and in-kind programming offered by local volunteers
who have completed The CoCo Training—a trauma-informed yoga outreach certification. This weekend curriculum develops specific skills and awareness needed to make authentic connection through yoga, teaching self-awareness and self-control while providing messages of empowerment. Since
2003, CoCo has been able to serve more than 35,000 youth nationwide in schools, college campuses, shelters, jails and other nonprofit organizations.
“By recognizing and addressing the symptoms of trauma in mostly under-resourced communities we give youth access to tools for emotional awareness, self-regulation, resiliency and empowerment using yoga, meditation, and mindfulness while regulating the nervous system and allowing for authentic connection, self-awareness and self-control.”
