Mission

Telling My Story is a non-profit organization that breaks down walls between socially isolated individuals and their communities through collaborative creative engagement. We use theater and the arts as a medium for social reflection and relationship building. Our programs develop self-awareness and communication skills with populations behind visible and invisible social walls such as those created by incarceration, addiction and poverty. Through writing and performing, people behind walls are empowered to reclaim their own voices and strengths.
