Finding Our Voices publishes a book of poetry each year. "VOICES" is a collection of 72 poems contributed by survivors of sexual abuse and their allies. The 2011 anthology is on the effects of and healing from sexual trauma. The book was prepared for April 2011 Sexual Assault Awareness Month, but we have more!
We have copies of the book available now for $10.00. The cost is $12.00 for USA shipping/handling. Finding Our Voices is a 501c3 non-profit. All proceeds from sales go to providing art events, healing art activities, and workshops for survivors.
Compiled by Brandi Ballard, Editor/Poet/Activist, the poems are neatly organized. These poems invite you to feel inspired, informed, enlightened, and comforted.
