Presented by NYSCASA Building Connections Project in collaboration with the Mental Health Association in New York State. / Chrys Ballerano, cballerano@nyscasa.org
NYS-based victim services staff/volunteers/survivors and other folks working with survivors are invited to participate in this peer sharing and learning collaborative focused on expressive arts for trauma informed wellness, preventing and addressing vicarious trauma and sharing vital practices. These informal conversations will be facilitated by Chrys Ballerano, Deb Faust, Fran Collet and Karen Ziegler.
We offer an ongoing, bi-monthly, informal virtual conversation about how to support our well-being through the expression of our "hearts & arts." Working with you, we plan to provide a 45-minute uplifting remote session to raise our spirits and enthusiasm! We welcome survivors of trauma who are in a safe and stable place and who are on the journey of making meaning in their lives. We welcome service providers from any discipline who actively work with trauma survivors. Please come and share your unique forms of self-expression that help you navigate the rapids of our turbulent times.
Our next Zoom session is scheduled for Thursday, June 24, from 12:00 to 1:00 PM. We will be alternating the times we meet on a bi-monthly basis to be as accessible as possible. Feel free to invite colleagues and associates❤.
