Celebrating All Year Long!
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.
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.
Breathe. Pause. Reflect. Connect.
Join us every Wednesday at 12:30 PM for Let’s Breathe, a virtual guided meditation designed to help you reset, release, and restore. These sessions are a gentle reminder that self-care is not selfish—it’s survival, it’s revolutionary, and it’s yours. No experience needed. All are welcome. Just bring yourself.
Whether you're a survivor, advocate, healer, or simply in need of space—this is for you. Together, we breathe. Together, we heal. Together, we rise.
This month’s theme is “Unapologetically Enough.”
Too often, women carry the weight of proving their worth in spaces that were never designed for us. This Sister Circle is a sacred space to release the pressure of perfection, confront imposter syndrome, and reclaim the truth: you are already enough.
Join us for an empowering evening of reflection, storytelling, and connection as we explore what it means to stand in our value without apology. Together, we’ll create strategies for silencing the inner critic, amplifying our authentic voices, and celebrating the brilliance we already embody.
This is not just a conversation—it’s a movement toward freedom, healing, and unapologetic self-love.
Through meaningful dialogue, creative practices, and collective healing, we’ll cultivate deeper alignment with peace and possibility. Join us for a soul-nourishing circle where we will:
This is more than a gathering — it’s a sacred movement toward freedom, wellness, and radical self-love. Come exactly as you are. Your story, your spirit, and your journey are honored here. Let this be the month you choose yourself — mind, body, and spirit.
This isn’t just a walk — it’s a restorative experience for men, women, and children to come together, connect, and take a meaningful pause to reflect on our mental health and honor the intentional decision of choosing life. We’ll gather at the scenic Lake Shelley, a beautiful space to walk mindfully, enjoy gentle meditation, and embrace the healing power of community. As part of our time together, you’re welcome to bring a short poem or quote that reminds you of life and hope, offering a chance to share words that uplift and inspire.
Whether you come to release what’s heavy, reset your mind, or simply reconnect with nature and loved ones, know that this space is created with intention, compassion, and care. Take this moment to breathe deeply, move your body, and nourish your spirit. We invite you and your family to join us in choosing yourselves — mind, body, and soul.
