4 MISSION To support and educate individuals in making healthy relationship choices, by teaching valuable life skills and assisting individuals in restoring the confidence necessary to achieve marital, personal and professional success. OUR GOAL We restore strong and productive family units to our community. The restoration is achieved using a process that involves encouraging individuals to become passionate about their personal, mental, emotional, and physical well being. Together with the client we achieve this restoration by implementing our inside out approach to personal and relational development. We promote healthy relationships starting first with our clients. We help them explore the murky depths of self-discovery and then guide them into manifesting their new-found confidence and self-awareness in the form of healthier relationship choices. WHAT IS RELATIONSHIP AND LIFE COACHING? Relationship and Life coaching can be characterized as a solution focused, strength based support service. It is a partnership between the coach and the client(s). This partnership is thought- provoking and the creative process associated with it inspires the client to maximize their personal and professional potential. Coaching is all about YOU and what you wish to achieve in your life. Your coach reminds you of your strengths, helps you to feel better about yourself and gives you valuable feedback that keeps you moving forward. The focus is on positive change. Essentially, life coaching helps you to think differently and learn for yourself what is best for you and your relationship. HISTORY Founded in February 2012, The Why Center, Inc. educates and supports individuals and couples in making healthy relationship choices. Shamina Allen, a Relationship Life Coach and published author, founded The Why Center, Inc. after suffering a heart-breaking divorce from her own husband of three years after the discovery of his homosexual desires. While recovering alongside others who had experienced similar disappointments, Ms. Allen discovered that many of their unhealthy relationship choices were grown out of the same roots: low self-esteem and a lack of self-awareness. In order to prevent others from experiencing the same pain she had as a result of a lack of knowledge, Shamina promised herself that she would found the WHY Center to support people facing the type of personal and relationship issues she had to face. OUR AUDIENCE The Why Center services are available to all that seek out our support, however we take an active role in servicing low- moderate income families, couples and individuals of all ethnic and cultural backgrounds; our clients range from ages 21-50; with women making up 70% of our serviced clientele.

5 PROJECTS & PROGRAMS Project Choice Relationship Coaching The WHY Center relationship coaching is a professional client-centered service that is based on our belief that couples and individuals are resourceful, strong, and capable of achieving their own relationship goals using the WHY Center relationship coaching service program and support.

Other Programs Collide Program The purpose of the Collide program is to address the unique circumstances that occur when individuals with homosexual desires have heterosexual relationships with straight partners. This unique collide of these two very different worlds is happening more frequently, without the proper support and resources, these couples have the potential to cause great danger to their mental and physical well being.

Service a community need. Your financial assistance will allow us to provide a valuable service; the most commonly cited statistic states that one in every four families will face divorce. More than one million people have parents who separate or divorce each year in the U.S. Many of these broken homes face poverty, depression and health issues as a result of the financial and emotional train that is associated with divorce and unhealthy relationship decisions. Our services are geared towards improving these statistics and creating stronger, more productive and long lasting family units.
