| Healing Story Sessions: Healing Story Sessions are live story telling events founded on the belief that story sharing is healing. In preparation for these sessions, we work closely with participants to construct their stories of illness and healing, and to become confortable sharing their stories in spoken word. Participants then invite a group of supportive community members to attend their session and to witness their stories. HSC facilitated four Healing Story Sessions in 2025 with an audience of over 180 individuals. | $0 | $20,142 |
| The Opiod Project consists of 4-hour art and audio storytelling workshops where participants find a safe space to process their personal experiences through creating collages and sharing stories.

Finished work is hung in community multimedia art exhibitions where each art collage is paired with its recorded audio story. HSC faciliated four Opioid Project workshops in 2025 for 31 individuals, and their artwork was shared with hundreds of viewers. | $0 | $20,799 |
