Can We Talk…

‘Can We Talk…’ is a program modeled after the listening series created by the Cory Johnson Program for Post-Traumatic Healing.

This program is a burgeoning success with our community. It offers a consistent, structured opportunity for our community to receive peer-to-peer encouragement along their journey towards healing.

Staff trained and equipped to facilitate as well as leaders in our community provide creative opportunities of expression to engage a diverse group of active community member participants and meet regularly to discuss the impacts of trauma. Our goal is to engage with each person and to utilize methods of trauma-informed care through storytelling to empower our community for impactful positive change.
