Explore the transformative power of expressive writing with this Sunday workshop series. Led by award-winning authors Joseph Bathanti and June Guralnick, the series will have a special focus on the power of writing for members of the United States Armed Forces (active duty or reserve), National Guard, and military veterans and their families. Additionally, the series will take a deep dive into how writing in the form of journaling, poetry, stories, etc. can be a wellness tool – and an enjoyable creative activity for everyone! Extensive research has shown that writing not only boosts emotional well-being and resiliency, but also positively impacts physical health and state of mind.

How Stories Save Us: A Creative Writing Workshop for Military Members and Families – co-facilitated by Joseph Bathanti and June Guralnick
This final session in the series will be a hands-on writing workshop for military members and families, designed to get participants reflecting on specific life events that in some ways capture their identities as soldiers and how that identity during and after service has influenced and shaped them. The focus of the workshop – empowerment through writing – will encourage participants to share their memorable stories, providing a supportive group environment to gain a new perspective on life’s important milestones. Whether you consider yourself a practiced writer, a beginner – or someone who has never attempted to write before – this workshop welcomes you!
