Handmade Jewelry & Bead working
PEACE Zone has started a
new endeavor that will serve
as both a wonderful activity
for members and possibly a
resource for additional revenue.
It started as a volunteer project by two University of
Southern Indiana students
who were studying occupational therapy. They were
looking to do a hands-on
project and thought this
might be an opportunity to
both give back and practice
what they have learned in fine
motor skills.
Every Tuesday at 4 p.m. Chelsea and Hana come to PEACE
Zone and work with members to create a variety of
beaded earrings and bracelets. They have also made a
few necklaces.
The funding to support the
purchase of the beads and
accessories came from grant
funding.
Chelsea stated, “I found out
about the PEACE Zone
through Beth Barchet (a
board member) and we were
looking to do a service project in the community. I have
enjoyed working with the
members. There are very
creative members here.”
time to view the pieces.
They have been asking $5
for earrings and bracelets.
They would make great
Christmas gifts. Other
items may be available to
purchase too.
Members have also been busy
painting wooden birdhouses
and decoupaging vases. The
jewelry and art pieces are for
sale with profits going to the
PEACE Zone.
If you have any old necklaces or beads that you
would be willing to donate
please contact us.
Eventually it would be
nice to set up an online
site for selling homemade items, such as
Etsy.
For now if you are interested in purchasing any
jewelry please contact

P.U.T. ~ Pick Up Trash Service Activity
On Thursday’s around our
building and in the local
community you may see
some members of PEACE
Zone picking up trash and
cleaning the general area.
Members participate in this
service activity say it is a
nice way to keep the community clean.
PEACE Zone is a project
supported by Southwestern
Behavioral Healthcare, Inc.
“The PEACE
Zone is a nice
place to be. It is
a wonderful
center to meet
new friends and
participate in a
lot of activities.
I hope you will
come and see
how great it is.
There are always
people here to
talk with and
things going on.”
Sam McDaniel stated, “It
makes you feel good to
know that you are not polluting the air and keeping
the public areas clean.”
Mileage Club
Members have been tracking how many miles they
walk on the track at PEACE
Zone since September and so
far they have accumulated 44
miles!
Pedometers were graciously donated by the
Vanderburgh County Health Department for
our members to use while walking.
In Case of Severe Weather
Please check 14 WFIE for
closings. If EVSC (Evansville

Zone will also be closed.
