Through generous support from the Van Otterloo Family Foundation, and in partnership with USC's Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work, The Voices and Faces Project is returning to Los Angeles June 3 - 5, 2022, to offer two groundbreaking programs to the USC community and its allies.
Creating Change in the Classroom: Testimony and Strategic Storytelling (6/3) is a workshop for educators, advocates and human service providers that focuses on best practices in cultivating and sharing survivor stories; how to incorporate testimony and the art of storytelling into teaching methodology; and how to work with difficult materials/subject matter in a trauma-informed way. Participants will reflect on their own stories as educators while participating in a seminar-style conversation on the need for a new "ethics of storytelling" in the classroom. This is a half-day program.

The Stories We Tell (June 4 - 5) The Voices and Faces Project's signature testimonial writing workshop was created for those who have lived through or witnessed gender based violence or other human rights violations. During this immersive two-day workshop, participants will read and discuss world-changing testimonial writing and art from across social movements and history, reflect on how to share their own testimonies, and engage in a series of innovative, real-time writing exercises and free-write sessions. With a focus on memoir, fiction, non-fiction and poetry, The Stories We Tell was created to support those who seek to use writing as a vehicle for personal or political transformation. Applications are due May 13, 2022.

Our stories are our power.
At The Voices and Faces Project we’re using them to create change. |
The Voices and Faces Project is an award-winning non-profit storytelling initiative created to bring the names, faces, and testimonies of survivors of gender-based violence to the attention of the public. Through our educational and advocacy trainings, survivor story archive and signature program, The Stories We Tell — an immersive, two-day testimonial writing workshop for those who have lived through or witnessed gender-based violence or other human rights violations — we seek to change minds, hearts, and public policies through the power of personal testimony. The Voices and Faces Project has been named one of America's Best Charities by the board of Independent Charities of America, and is a registered 501c3 organization.
