The Healing Journey II : Grounding in Healing Justice

Welcome back to the Healing Journey!
The Healing Journey II, is a bi-monthly webinar that brings Survivor’s Sanctuary content to life.
About This Series:
The ‘me too.’ theory of healing states that “healed communities are better positioned to resist and usher in the radical change necessary to end sexual violence.” What does it mean to heal in community? What makes survivor healing both a political matter and an act of self-care? Through the Healing Journey II, we will explore these questions using a Healing Justice framework and tools from Survivor’s Sanctuary.
Healing Lineages (2023) defines Healing Justice as a community-led response to interrupt, transform, and intervene in individual/collective trauma to sustain our emotional/physical/mental/spiritual/psychic/environmental well-being. Healing Justice is a cultural strategy that seeks to create models of holistic care and safety. Healing Justice is a political strategy to decriminalize communal and ancestral traditions.
This first session will be a panel discussion exploring the roots of healing justice and the collective wisdom that led to its definition. We will be joined by a global panel of participants from the US, Guatamala and Senegal.

While The Healing Journey II is open to all, we will prioritize the diverse experiences of women and fems of the global majority. The Healing Journey II will be our first multilingual multicultural healing series. We invite returning participants to expand their vision of healing in community, to include survivors across borders. Some sessions may be led in languages other than English. We encourage non-English speakers to access Survivor’s Sanctuary via Google Chrome to ensure site translation.
