Rising Phoenix - Tyler Enactus "From the ashes of adversity is born a new life." Rising Phoenix is a project founded by a UT Tyler SIFE member in 2009.

Originally, SIFE teamed up with the East Texas Crisis Center in Tyler, Texas to teach women who have been the victim of domestic abuse the importance of a professional brand. We are interested in helping these women regain the confidence they need to start their desired career and end the cycle of domestic violence. Currently, we partner with Gail Johnson, co-author of A New Brand You and adjunct

professor at the University of Texas at Tyler, and the East Texas Crisis Center to bring a 4 week workshop to women at the Crisis Center to teach them professional branding, resume and cover-letter writing, and how to dress for success. We are also building a website that allows women from all over the country participate in our program through their local area Crisis Center via the internet. If you or someone you know is being abused, please seek help:

Had a great time last night with the women participants. They're so eager to learn, it's unreal. I feel so blessed to be able to bring this project to them after so much trial last semester.

This year's Rising Phoenix project is finally on the move. January 5th will be the Meet and Great at the Crisis Center. This is when the SIFE students get to meet the women of the project and get paired up. If you are interested in participating please contact my (KeeKee) at [email protected].

If anyone is interested in chairing this project next semester, please also let me know that. I will be working on it during the Christmas break, but I need someone to take over once the semester starts.

Most women are not even aware that they are in an abusive relationship. They think, "he just has a bad temper" and they go through life trying not to make him mad.This is a link to an article that help women identify signs of domestic violence and friends recognize if a friend is being abused. If you recognize any of these in yourself or someone you know, please find a subtle way to help. It will only get worse.

Are you wondering if you or someone you love is being abused? Learn about domestic violence and abuse and the signs of an abusive relationship.
