NYC Celebrates Women (NYCCW) presents “Illuminate Your Path,” a two-part, culturally responsive program combining therapeutic candle-making with trauma-informed wellness, entrepreneurial training, and financial empowerment for Women of Color, new immigrants, and seniors across Manhattan. Hands-on sessions integrate mindfulness and creative expression with actionable business tools to cultivate wellness-based microenterprises, reduce systemic barriers, and strengthen community resilience by advancing mental health, economic self-sufficiency, and culturally attuned support networks.
