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.

GAZING AT THE CALENDAR by Jason Townsend

Time is a trauma
Keep your eyes on the clock
And it ticks away
In a way that time mocks
 
Time is a drama
Spider webs in your mind
Time's never a comma
And it keeps you in line
 
There's nothing to fear
As time marches on
At the calendar you leer
And in a moment...time's gone.
-Jason Townsend
