| What's Goin' On Creating a Victimless Reality for Our Youth Seminars Workshops Retreats Motivational Speaker |
| Robinson is a unique woman, filled with endless courage and faith, following the tragic loss of her oldest son to gun violence in front of a Chicago high school 15 years ago. Her son, Larry, a star athlete and model student slated to run the 1992 Olympic Trials to gain a place on the prestigious U.S. Track Team was shot seven times in front of his former high school in a case of mistaken identity. Robinson's subsequent growth from this painful and gut wrenching experience has inspired her to share her touching story along with an in-depth approach of problem solving strategies that confronts the issues of violence affecting children in the schools, homes and communities. Combining an innovative curriculum with strong spiritual influence, musical and multimedia presentation, her workshops and seminars have moved and inspired people to be passionately proactive in lives of children everywhere. Her 1995 appearance on "The Oprah Show" awarded her national recognition as Oprah's First "Parent of the Week." |
