At Poetry Heals, we are dedicated to healing through creative self expression. Our trained mentors facilitate workshops that guide people to explore their feelings and process difficult experiences through writing.
Our work is made possible through the generous contributions of community members like you. Please consider donating to keep our work going!
Poetry really does heal!
