My Sisters' Place (DVSA Agency)/ Wishoff Wishes (Art/activism company)
I've been a DV/SA Advocate for 16+ years. While in advocacy, I turned to art as my way to process what I was working through as a survivor supporting survivors. I facilitate therapeutic art groups, have created awareness/community art engagement events, and countless tools/documents/policy/procedures/art to support the work and bring sanity to my responsibilities/staff. I've always kept my art business and my advocacy separate in professional settings but they always seep into each other. In the last few years, I've really leaned into it. I've done the artwork for three state wide awareness campaigns for OCADSV and created a great deal of tools/engagement activities for various nonprofit groups. Survivor support, financial independence, healing, and housing/food security is work dear to my heart. I don't have a huge online presence because I've been deep in the work. This seems like good timing to explore this avenue as it is already work I've been doing in my community/state. I'm angry with the systems and I'm burnt out. Instead of (nonviolently) flipping a table and walking away, I'd like to turn more of my energy and experience towards something that could buoy up others so that they can lift survivors in this challenging time.
