HEALING

Opportunities to Find Your Voice and Each Other

The Healing Through Memoir weekend writing retreat launched like a rocket in June 2023 with Deborah Joy Corey as our writing instructor and Rickey Celentano as the in-house therapist. We will be announcing the 2024 writing retreat soon!

One of the most painful parts of being a survivor of abuse is spending so much time with people who don’t “get it.” Being with these women gave me hope, and empowered me to share my voice with bravery and confidence. I poured my pain into my writing during the retreat and have found myself continuing to write with new-found ambition, healing more and more every time I put pen to paper.


Healing Through Songwriting

Through a collaboration with DocSong, Finding Our Voices survivors worked with songwriters and singers from around the world to write songs based on their journeys.

Book Giveaway

Survivors inscribe books that we gift them to our sisters who are still trapped, along with a bookmark featuring the survivor who wrote the message!

Recipients of these books include incarcerated women at Windham Prison.

Thank you for sending me the book and for the loving message inside. Your support has shifted something in me. I know I will be able to leave soon…your validation and being there is making a difference to me.

Tonight as I read the first few pages and the handwritten note, I feel hope and like things will one day be okay again.
