Storytelling Workshop for Folks Impacted by ICE

Have you been personally impacted by immigrant detention? If you have been detained by ICE or had a loved one that was, you are invited to attend this storytelling workshop.

The workshop will focus on story-telling as a means for reclaiming, and holding onto one’s dignity, self-care techniques to lessen the impact of re-traumatization when telling your story, and the healing power of story-telling.

This storytelling workshop is meant to prepare Casa de Paz's guest speakers as they share their experiences in the community. If you know of someone who would like to attend the workshop or become a paid guest speaker for Casa de Paz, please tell them about this opportunity.
