Safeart Inc

The Healing Arts for Women Program is in its 16th year. We have changed the format of the program over the years to respond to the needs of the community but it always has the goal of providing an opportunity for women to utilize the power of their creativity through the expressive arts to process trauma and life experiences, be it illness, death of a loved one, sexual or family violence, major accidents, etc. Six years ago, we started the Healing Arts Imaginative Care Unit (HAICU), as a model to address the needs of women who are either at-risk of psychiatric hospitalization or requiring other forms of intensive mental and emotional support.

SafeArt facilitates trauma-informed expressive arts workshops, presentations and trainings for professionals in the field, as well as community members.
