MISSION STATEMENT

SILENT VOICES SPEAK started out as Silent Voices: A Writer’s Workshop, as the first group at the drop-in center at the Broadway location of Community Counseling Centers of Chicago, whose purpose is to empower it’s attendees to form and attend their own groups.

We have branched out as an independent entity. We are silent no more. We say yes to the creative possibilities of life & art...

The mission of SILENT VOICES SPEAK is to give a voice to people who are disenfranchised. Many of the participants in SILENT VOICES SPEAK are also visual and/or performing artists.

Membership is open to all.

THE COLOR OF TRUTH by Sharon H.

There comes a time in life
when finally...
how long has it taken?
you are simply true to yourself.
Like breathing, you immediatly
follow your truest impulse...
and you trust that truth inside
that you finally own
without Fear.
Feel light as air
running toward the curves ahead
full force...
Not back to the life
you were born into.
No worries,
Anxiety free,
A strength
Powerful
Dangerous
Courageous....
SHE WILL BE HEARD!!

    This one really resonates with me on a profound level. I've always been taken aback and been impressed by your courage to speak the truth no matter what it may be. It inspires me to do the same. Fear is just a waste of the prescious time we have. Love you Sharon!
