At each stage of this journey we have seen that it is our steadfastness and resilience that has shown we are an investable entity. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Much like the people we support, we too, are proving our worth each step of the way. We have managed to create jobs, build a community of like minded people and foster other social enterprises along the way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Each week, in our shop, at the Jacksonville Farmers Market, we get to meet people from all over our community. We are ever astounded at the diversity of our city. We get to learn about their lives and support their goals be them health, business or personal. The goal of Character Counts is to foster discussions and experiences that help us live to the Six Pillars of Character. The shop at the JFM allows us to welcome these exchanges and build relationships based on character. <br /><br />It is quite an honor to host this space. We feel so privileged to bear witness to the many stories that are told week to week. It has been so inspiring to hear how others over come hardship and find courage day to day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We hope you will find the time to spend a few minutes with us out at the Market. Your insights and wisdom will add to the magic of the space!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As we prepare for One Spark, I am struck at the energy that is being created around us. <br /><br />While sharing what we are working on, resources and people are being attracted to our mission: To bring resources to other social enterprises to fuel growth and sustainability.<br /><br />Articulating and sharing our mission has helped us see anew. It has helped us to see how all that we have learned while creating Conscious Eats has fueled how we want to help others on their path to creating livelihoods and change. <br /><br />Building Conscious Eats has taught us that fostering meaningful alliances within our community is critical. Working to build a social enterprise is complex. While creating a business we are also creating an educational platform that will empower those who are involved to evolve. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Some days the vision is sparkling and clear, other days the vastness of it all confuses us. Yet as we step forward day to day, each and every lessons brings us closer to realizing the dream of employing those who have struggled to find their place in the world. Our commitment to this vision is strengthened and fueled each step along this path...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This free monthly lunch has been created to foster
interdisciplinary dialogue within the design and social change
communities. We believe in the power of design to engage and transform.
The goal of this monthly event is to explore the discipline of design as
well as the many facets of it. All change agents are welcome to join
the dialogue. As we work to refine the design of our city, we hope these
gatherings will inspire a spirit of collaboration and shared values. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Why is CCINJAX interested in design? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Florence Haridan the Executive Director of the organization has been a designer her whole career. Before leading our non-profit, her roles as a leader have always been grounded in design thinking. <br /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As she brings the work of CC to life, she has leveraged her knowledge of design to to create and implement programs, projects and products. She believes the discipline of design is critical in the social change process and is often referred to as a design advocate. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Today the Conscious brands are guided by design thinking and it is this discipline we believe will bring the social enterprises long term sustainable success. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Who do you show up as during times of adversity?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">What aspect of your character is revealed? <br />Strengthened? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Questioned?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Each of us has the opportunity to live and breathe into our character during times of turmoil. As we participate/witness systems that are flawed, broken and misunderstood, we are often called to voice our opinions. <br /><br />HOW we voice those thoughts is critical to igniting meaningful dialogue and in turn taking right action. We ask that YOU consider how your character will be revealed and what the legacy of your words and actions will create. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Creating a community based on trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship, we MUST look within and allow ourselves to be held to the next level of accountability. It is in that commitment, we inspire others to do the same. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">How are you showing up today?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>EVENT POSTPONED: Will POST when rescheduled. </b><br /><br />Each day we are asked to give our attention, our resources and often our hearts to individuals, causes or ideas. How and why we decide where we invest is critical to achieving the right results, that will make a life or a community better.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The question we have been considering, as resources become more precious is, are we giving or are we investing?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We believe it is about investing. When we give, are we to expect an outcome, most often not. Yet over the years of researching this topic, I have found this to be a falsehood. We have a natural expectation that when we give, there will be a result. Our innate desire to make a difference in the world is connected to our ability to manage the resurces we have to achieve the greatest result. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Quite simply, the goal of igniting this conversation is to get each of us to think more strategically on how and where we give for the greatest impact in our community. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Join us <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-roi-of-giving-tickets-6906163521" target="_blank">January 9th</a> at Everbank stadium for an afternoon of discussion, passion and purpose. </span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Who is worthy of your help? <br />How may you hold them accountable?</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The act of asking for help is a deep and powerful expression of self worth. Often it is the hardest thing a person or organization can can do when in need. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This morning I received word that an old friend took her life. I sat praying for her, for her family and finally for myself. That I would remember this moment of personal doubt that was fueled by my, "What could I have done?" thoughts. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Regret is here. Shame is here. Passion has been stirred. Action is real! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Several years ago I created a workbook that was about the cycle of giving and receiving. I interviewed hundreds of people on the topic and came to two very deep conclusions. We ASK for help when we feel worthy and GIVE help to those we deem worthy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It was a humbling exploration into my own self worth and that of those around me. My journey these past years has been a deeper education on the cycle of help. I know today when I ask for help, I MUST be willing to be held accountable to the giver and I have a responsibility to hold those I give help to accountable. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As you give this holiday season, I ask you to ponder the notion of accountability and how it plays into who and how you give. </span></div>

You and I love stories about redemption — people overcoming, surviving and conquering.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
This
column was going to be about the redemption of a convicted felon named
Shawn, but then I found out what he did to earn 12 years in prison, and I
— and probably you — can’t handle that yet. I need a more open mind and
a bigger heart.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Let’s see if we can find that. Maybe through
another powerful story of redemption, that of Florence Haridan, who
ultimately became one of Shawn’s angels of redemption.<br />
Eleven
years ago, Haridan was a senior executive at Citibank in Jacksonville,
leading teams of hundreds of people in the credit card division.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
But
her life was a disaster. The daughter of an abusive alcoholic father,
she was married to an abusive husband. And she weighed more than 400
pounds. “I’d been fat my whole life. Food was my drug of choice.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
About
11 years ago, at the age of 40, she had a “personal awakening,” when
her weight was keeping her from enjoying the beach, one of her few
pleasures. It just wore her out to walk on the sand and bend over to
pick up seashells. So, she said, “I went on a personal journey. I gave
myself a chance.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
She had gastric-bypass surgery, committed to a
12-step program, lost 220 pounds and kept it off. After a particularly
violent night — “my birthday” — she divorced her husband and left him
with “half of my net worth.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
But trouble wasn’t through with her.
She had left Citibank to find more creative work, but instead, she
developed pernicious anemia, a very serious disease that enfeebled her
for 2½ years and left her impoverished and miserable.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
In 2008,
Haridan decided to kill herself. She wrote the note, took some pills and
planned to jump off a bridge in St. Augustine. A friend called the
police, and the cop who checked on her, noting the religious art around
her apartment, asked if she believed in God.<br />
“Where is he now?” she remembers responding. “I’m broke, I’m almost dead.”<br />
The officer said: “He sent me.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Haridan
spent nine days in the Flagler Hospital “psych ward” under the Baker
Act, then went through psychotherapy. She said the doctors figured out
her misery traced back to the pernicious anemia.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Haridan remembers
the moment in the hospital that jolted her to end her free fall and
begin the ascent. “Some friends had come to see me, and I felt so bad
when they left because I couldn’t leave. I saw people in there being
given up on. They had no one.”<br />
They were almost disposable people, being tossed out as useless, and that became a metaphor for her and what came next.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“I
just got busy getting better. The psych ward had a creative room, so I
started getting creative again.” She had a BFA in graphic design and had
worked in that field early in her career. One of her favorite, and
oft-used, words is “creative.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
And she got a job as the local
executive director of Character Counts, the national program that works
to infuse schools, governments and agencies with its “six pillars of
character” — trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring
and citizenship.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“We work to bring character to life in unique and
innovative ways by creating experiences that engage the participants to
have their voices heard,” the organizations says. “We endeavor to
create a sense of accountability and empowerment for all our members.”<br />
Something
in those words resonated with Haridan — her education, experience and
personal redemption. “All that life experience prepared me for this.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
She
decided to create an entrepreneurial enterprise for Character Counts
that would recycle or revive disposable things — food, material and
people.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
So far, she has created Conscious Eats, which takes
donated food and uses it for catering or different products — Einstein
Bagels, for example, donated day-old bagels that Conscious Eats is
turning into trail mix and bagel chips for Intuition Ale Works.<br />
Still
to come are Conscious Threads, to repurpose clothing, and Conscious
Story, to tell inspirational stories of re-created lives like Haridan’s.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
But
after the entrepreneurial creativity and business plans are the heart
of the Conscious projects — reclaimed people to work for the
enterprises.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Remembering those lost souls in the psych ward and,
for a time, herself, Haridan targeted the most disposable people, those
no one wants — ex-cons. She takes them fresh out of prison, sees they
get character coaching and counseling with mentors, helps them develop a
“business plan” for their lives, insists they follow the parole rules,
gives them some work to do and some self-respect, and shows them there
is a way up.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Her star is Shawn, a former Blue Cross manager who
came to her 2½ years ago after serving 12 years in prison — for sexual
assault of a child. Haridan said he himself was abused as a child, and
he turned himself in, and so on, but still … sexual assault of a child.<br />
Haridan
said Shawn has worked hard and straight since he went to prison. He
taught GED classes inside and learned Spanish. Since he’s been out, she
said, he’s obeyed all the parole and sex-offender registration rules,
and he’s about to receive his bachelor’s degree at FSCJ. He’s chair of
the finance committee of his church, and he and his fiancée are planning
their wedding.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Hardly anyone else wants him. He has to live in a
“hellhole, with a slum landlord,” Haridan said, and keep a log of
everywhere he goes and avoid certain social situations. (Shawn is so
nervous about this column that he finally asked that his last name not
be used. Out of hope for his redemption, I agreed.)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
While Shawn
worked at menial labor, Haridan started hiring him part time to help
establish Conscious Eats, and through hard work and creativity, he now
is full-time director of operations.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
In talking about Shawn and
her other ex-offenders, Haridan fairly exudes energy, enthusiasm and
optimism. Her eyes brighten and her words accelerate as she describes
the emotional, psychological and functional transformations she sees in
her recycled people.<br />
“While they’re in prison,” she said, “they’re
just sitting, and their neuro pathways for problem-solving are set
aside. Someone tells them when to eat, when to drink, when to sleep.
They can’t use their creative side where they have to improvise, make
something out of nothing.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
So after they’re released, receive some
counseling and supervision, they need work, which is hard enough for an
ex-con. Haridan said they also need a chance to succeed at something
and earn self-respect. A lucky few get a chance to do that with
Character Counts and the Conscious project.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“These are amazing men
who can be wildly creative, but before, they used it in crime.” Haridan
said that, with some opportunity and their own commitment, they can
recycle that creativity into a new life.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“I am very ambitious and
very determined,” Shawn said, “and as my personal coach, she has managed
to pull me out of my shell and take my strengths, skills and abilities
and start to hone them. Working with her has pushed me back to where I
focused, taking more initiative, more problem-solving as related to
business opportunities.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“Rather than being something of an
outcast, she has helped me meet people and have some purpose in my life
again, rather than just a run-of-the-mill job to pay the bills.”<br />
Shawn,
now 39, said he understands why people are revolted at his crime.
“Nothing I can say will excuse it or justify it or make it go away. I
don’t try to minimize what I did, but I also have learned how I got to
that point and why I did what I did.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“While I was in [prison], it
took me several years of really finding what was meaningful in life to
me, to where I really gave my life to Christ. He has changed me
immensely, while I was inside and now on the outside. A catalyst to me
becoming a different person.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
“I want to live uprightly and do
what’s right and be a contributing member of society. People can change.
People who get to know me see my person, see how I live my life,
they’re very comfortable and at ease with me. They see what I’m focused
on and what my life is about. I know that redemption is possible, that
redemption is real.<br />
“Nothing is throwaway. Everyone has potential.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
So
will Shawn make it? “Absolutely,” said Haridan. “He’s going to run this
company, or another one. He’s an entrepreneur, way smarter than humping
boxes in a warehouse. He has a dream. He wants a family again. He’s
going to be fabulously successful.”<br />
She said she will be, too. “I’ll employ hundreds of guys, and I’ll have tons of jobs created — and people living in character.”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="null"><br />
Go
back to the bagel analogy. “Those bagels are half a day old,” Haridan
said, “so they’re disposable, just like these guys. But with a little
bit of ingenuity, a little bit of creativity, you can make something
that’s garbage into something that’s unexpected and beautiful.<br />
“I helped Shawn get his faith in himself back. I help people love themselves again.”<br />
Most of us can’t see the potential in people like Shawn. Thank goodness someone does.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The Golden Rule Award has been recognizing character in individuals in our community since <a href="http://ccinjax.blogspot.com/p/about-awardwinners.html" target="_blank">2005</a>. Our first winners, </span><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Sheriff John Rutherford, Jacksonville Sheriff's Office and Doug Milne, of <span class="st">Doug Milne Company Inc, set the standard high!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This is a year of expansion on several levels. We are adding two additional categories: family and business as well as opening the nomination process to the community!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As we work to instill a character based approach to community building, it became clear that the fastest way to expand the discussion was to bring the community into the process in a more meaningful way...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We know amazing expressions of character and ethics happen every day in our city. We want to be able to hear about them and recognize them. The <a href="http://ccinjax.blogspot.com/p/blog-page_6695.html" target="_blank">Six Pillars</a> are the foundation of our philosophy. We look to them for a standards and structures.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This year we are not only opening the nomination process to the community, we are bringing on more perspectives as we select our winners. The selection committee is being formed and will be announced soon! As well as the location of the award ceremony!</span><br />
