CCN Involved with Domestic Violence Candlelight Vigil on September 30
On Friday, September 30, the New Beginning Center hosts a candlelight vigil to honor the
victims and survivors of intimate partner and family violence. The New Beginning Center is a non-profit organization in Garland, Texas, dedicated to where life without Domestic Violence begins. The multi-faceted program begins at 6:00 p.m. at Lakeside Market Plano, located at 5801 Preston Road at Spring Creek Parkway.

The featured speaker at the vigil is our own Carmen Coreas, an international consultant for Creative Communication Network. Coreas, a victim and survivor of sexual abuse and domestic violence, will share her personal journey as she moved from victim to survivor to thriver. Her upbeat message offers the dual features of remembrance and hope. She is a frequent speaker to agencies and shelters for Domestic Violence victims, and offers a complete presentation entitled “It Ends With You,” which she gives free of charge to qualifying organizations. You can find complete information by clicking here. All attendees will receive a free copy of her newest publication, “From My Heart to Yours,” based upon entries in her Christian blog, which you can read by clicking here.
In addition to this event, Coreas is also one of five speakers at the October 21 half-day conference at Springcreek Church in Garland sponsored by Creative Communication Network entitled “The State of Affairs in Domestic Violence,” benefiting the New Beginning Center and Hope’s Door, with voluntary donations.

Our Involvement Against Domestic Violence
As an organization, Creative Communication Network has taken an active interest in, and a stand against domestic violence. You can read my essay about this topic that I wrote last summer on our blog by clicking HERE.
Here are some examples of our recent activity. The New Beginning Center in Garland, 
Texas, has as its mission this statement: “We are dedicated to ending family violence through education, advocacy, counseling and support and we work tirelessly to help bring these free resources to our community.” You can explore the Center’s web page by clicking HERE.
The New Beginning Center is in the midst of hosting a five-day “Trendsetters Camp” for teens, ages 13-18. The camp is to help teens build proper relationships, fight bullying, and prevent domestic violence. We sponsored one of the teens to attend the camp. You can click on the Center’s Facebook page HERE. On Monday, June 13, one of our CCN speakers, Carmen Coreas, addressed the group of participants, by sharing her experiences and providing “red flags” for them to watch out for in their relationships.
We also provide Carmen’s presentation free of charge to all qualifying agencies and shelters. Her speech, “It Ends With You” is an uplifting message for victims, explaining that there is always hope for a new future that they create. Participants hear her story, and she shows them how to take charge of their life by taking specific directions that they can implement. She says, “I understand what you have gone through – it ended with me! It ends with you!” For more information about her presentation, click HERE. To book the presentation for an agency or shelter, contact me at .
In the summer, I teach a public speaking course, and I will invite top speakers to participate in a bureau to spread the word about the New Beginning Center, to provide positive public relations, and increase financial contributions and other means of support.
In the fall, I teach an MBA course in “Practical Business Immersion,” and the students will complete a plan for an important project for the Center to execute and implement.
These are just some of the activities that our company is active with regarding domestic violence. For information on how you could help book a presentation, make a donation, or increase awareness, contact us at .

The Center is “dedicated to ending family violence through education, advocacy, counseling and support and we work tirelessly to help bring these free resources to our community. We have been a leader in the fight against domestic violence for over 30 years and the dedication of our community partners and generous donors make it possible for New Beginning Center to reach thousands of North Texans every year.” One of the Center’s sponsors is First United Methodist Church – Garland, where CCN President Karl J. Krayer is an active participant.
“It Ends With You” is a message of hope, renewal, and redirection for teens and women who have been victims of sexual abuse and domestic violence. Carmen’s incredible and heart-wrenching story of how she moved from abuse in her family and domestic relationships to a new positive and upbeat life will touch you. Her experiences will connect with you. Her message will give you direction with practical alternatives to put the past behind you, and focus on the future in order to live your life to its fullest. Carmen’s message will inspire you to:
- take control of your life,
