About Healing Words…
Healing Words is a transformative project designed to span over six weeks, offering free weekly guided workshops for survivors of CSA. These workshops aim to provide participants with a safe and supportive space to craft short memoirs, allowing them to share fragments of their unique journeys. The culmination of this journey is the creation of an anthology—a collection of these narratives—to be published in an e-book at the end of the project.
As we believe in the healing power of creative expression, these guided workshops will use the medium of creative writing to help participants articulate their experiences, fostering a sense of community and resilience.
