We are no longer Silent Voices.
We are no longer affiliated with Community Counseling Centers of Chicago.
We are independent & free.
We are now under the moniker ARTISTS & WRITERS EMPOWERED (A.W.E.)
Thanks Ellen for the great name!
We were originally known as SILENT VOICES and were affiliated with a Mental Health Organization.
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.
