10/30, Wednesday, 6:15-7:15pm, Survivor Support Circle (with Adult Coloring Pages) @ Abundant Space:  Join our *new* monthly support circle for survivors, by survivors. The intention of this circle is to create a safe space for survivors to come as they are and be with people who understand the experience and trauma of sexual violence. We will open up the space to discuss the experience of being a survivor while also enjoying the creative act of coloring. Whether you prefer to speak, listen, or simply enjoy the act of coloring in community, all are welcome. Supplies will be provided. This circle is peer-led by fellow survivors (not by a therapist or other medical professional). To register, please contact us directly through Instagram @survivorsrise or by email at hello@survivors-rise.com. Registration in advance is required.

If you have time, we encourage you to paint two pots, one to leave more a future survivor with a message of hope and inspiration. We will also have our pots from earlier this year on display, and encourage you to take a pot for inspiration if you could use one and find one that speaks to you. There will be many choices, but ultimately, you will leave with at least one potted plant and one painted pot. Welcome! Space will be limited, so please register early, and if you cannot make it that's okay, but let us know so we can open the waiting list!
