Narratives of Pain is a non-profit organization with a focus on community storytelling experiences aimed at individual and collective healing. Narratives of Pain offers a different approach to helping us heal and understand our hurt through art, music, speech, and poetry. Let’s tell each other our stories. Let’s sing out our pain, and let others be witnesses. As a non-profit organization, our focus is on creating a community-driven atmosphere where all can share their feelings with comfort and communion. We pride ourselves in creating a safe and judgement free environment where all people can find their healing through storytelling. Discussing personal struggles, mental health, and pain can be an experience of healing for everyone. Keeping these things inside can lead to emotional exhaustion. On the contrary, having a safe space to explore and share these experiences can make a huge difference for survivors and the community at large. Having the space to be able to share deeply personal and difficult experiences, topics, and ideas will make a tremendous impact on the lives of the people in your community and in communities everywhere. We have held event showcases in several cities across the metro-Detroit area, in Lansing, in Toronto, in Washington D.C. and are continuing to reach communities all over.
