Bel Inizio

Mission Statement

Bel Inizio helps disadvantaged women develop self-confidence and life skills through fitness and nutrition education. Bel Inizio, which means Beautiful Beginning in Italian, works working with women in recovery from abuse and addiction, who are living in transitional housing or those that have recently left and have reentered society. Our clients are in recovery, may have criminal backgrounds and all have children. They have resources available in their shelters, but few provide the direct empowerment model provided by Bel Inizio to build their self-esteem but training for, and completing their first 5K race.
