Support our Stories We Tell Scholarship Fund and give a survivor the gift of change.

The Stories We Tell, The Voices and Faces Project's immersive, two-day testimonial writing program, was developed to help those who have survived or witnessed gender-based violence call the public to greater compassion and, perhaps even more importantly, social action. During our Stories We Tell workshops, participants discuss examples of world-changing testimonial writing from various social movements and take part in a series of innovative, real-time writing exercises. |

We support emerging and established writers, activists, and direct service providers as they think about what testimonial writing is and why it matters. We help workshop participants imagine how they can most effectively carry forward the work of witness. And we encourage our participants as they find new sources of personal and political power within themselves. |

| We’re not just training writers. We’re creating community. The power of the stories emerging from The Stories We Tell is twofold. They call the public to an honest accounting of gender-based violence, and they attest to the strength that survivors find in a safe, creatively challenging community. |
| Today, we're launching a drive to support our 2019 Stories We Tell Scholarship Fund. Every $650 raised provides a full, two-day scholarship to a workshop applicant ready to take part in our groundbreaking writing program. Thanks, in advance, for giving the gift of change.
