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.

Wow!



Mom, you sustain me.
I withdraw hope from your reservoir.
You energize me.

As my life teacher,
You share your financial wizardry
In our strategic planning sessions.

You share your soul searches by
Confiding in me and sharing secrets.
We comfort each other.

You defend my dignity as
John’s greatest promoter.
You lead me staunchly down time’s hazy corridor.

Wow!
