Our Mission

Therapeutic Art Intervention

Therapeutic Art Intervention

Bridging the Gap. Breaking Barriers. Building Healed & Healthy Communities. We use Healing Through Art to prevent and address sexual assault and domestic violence through outreach, counseling, resilience coaching, and mentoring. Our holistic approach supports survivors—especially children and families—through Integrative Art Intervention and direct advocacy services.

Therapeutic Art Intervention

Through  creating art and reflecting on the art products and processes, people  can increase awareness of self worth while learning creative methods to  manage symptom-related stress in conjunction with traumatic experiences.

At SUSO, our programs are centered 

in the belief of valuable affirmations and the importance of speaking things into existence as a model of confidence and self assurance. 

Upcoming Programs & Events

Wellness Wednesdays: Every Wednesday Virtual Meditations

Breathe. Pause. Reflect. Connect.


 In recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we invite survivors, advocates, loved ones, and community allies to gather in a supportive virtual space. Together we pause for a 30-minute guided meditation — breathing, reflecting, and honoring the resilience of all touched by violence. These sessions are an opportunity to recharge, find stillness, and strengthen our collective healing. Whether you join as a survivor, a supporter, or simply someone who cares, your presence matters.

October 23, 2025 - Remember My Name Candlelight Vigil

 The Remember My Name Candlelight Vigil is a sacred evening of remembrance and hope where our community gathers to honor the lives lost to domestic violence, uplift the voices of survivors, and stand in solidarity with families forever impacted. Together, through reflection, storytelling, and the glow of candlelight, we affirm that their names will never be forgotten and that healing, love, and collective action will continue to light the path forward. 

We welcome folks to share stories, poetry, and songs as we stand together in solidarity. 

 Childcare will be available during the vigil with engaging art activities for youth. 

If you are interested in speaking please RSVP below. This is a public event and open to the community.

Breathe Life Sister Circle Nov.16th **Virtual**


 For the remainder of the year, we’re inviting women from all over the  world to join our Virtual Breathe Life Sister Circle — a sacred online  space for restoration, reflection, and community.  Each month, we gather for 60–90 minutes of powerful conversation,  creative healing, and sisterhood. Together, we breathe, release, and  rise — nurturing the mind, body, and spirit. Whether you come to listen,  share, or simply be present, you’ll leave renewed and reminded that you  are not alone on your healing journey. This space is open for all women  and provide nurturing connections as we prepare for 2026.  


Join us every 3rd Sunday at 5 PM EST as we breathe life into ourselves  and one another. Set your week up well with Breathe Life Sister Circle  in partnership with StandUp-SpeakOut NC.
