Misty Sol will facilitate a six-week/twelve-session journaling workshop for students of Traveler’s Aid (the city’s largest family shelter). The workshops will include activities in free writing techniques, book-making, improve, and freestyle poetry compositions. The journaling and other creative activities will serve as an emotional outlet for the students and provide a safe space for them to vent, process, and channel their negative experiences into something creative. The students will also have the opportunity to be published in the local newspaper One Step Away, which is for and by the homeless.
