TESTIFY

​This workshop provides a hands-on exploration of how guided memoir writing can be used as a tool for societal change. University student interns will be writing and working side by side with other students and community members to explore how individual experiences relate to larger social and political issues and how finding one’s voice and telling one’s story can produce empowerment and contribute to the process of change. Through this process, interns will hone their writing and communication skills, strengthen their skills in active listening and constructive feedback, and acquire fresh insights into the power of storytelling and community building.
