Brown helped bring in the new school year with the Jenesse Center of Los Angeles, a domestic violence intervention and prevention organization. The singer hosted a special Back to School Festival last week in partnership with Jenesse?s youth advocate group, The Change.
?It?is our?focus?on?family?violence?and its?impact on?youth?that compelled us to open?our?hearts?and our doors to?Chris?Brown?and his mother,?Joyce?Hawkins,? said founder Karen Earl.??Chris and his?mom have?spent?many?quiet hours?at our?facilities, no?cameras, no special attention or?entourages they?just?came?to?learn.?Jenesse is thankful to?Chris for?spending?time?with?our??youth?and?celebrating?the end of?summer?and?returning?back to school.?
Brown first formed a relationship with the domestic violence center in 2009, when he first learned about the various programs it offered, including counseling and recovery.
Through the Festival, Brown spoke to more than 200 Los Angeles students about?dating violence and healthy relationships. He also joined children to paint a special mural for children living at Camp Jenesse.
?There?is no denying?Mr.?Brown?s popularity?and the?impact?that?it has?on our?youth?to see?him?be?a?part?of this conversation.?His participation really drives home?the message?that a?person?can?choose?to overcome their?past hardships and to work towards a better future, not?just for?themselves, but for their?loved ones and?their?community.?
