Last March, a human service provider for recovering addicts attended a woman's empowerment day where the Founder of The InkWELL, Dinahsta Kiane, was presenting on the art and process of transformation and on how we can navigate transformation with our pen. The presentation was so moving that the human service provider immediately knew she wanted her clients to experience what she did that day. Eighteen months later, The InkWELL is providing a series on emotional self-care and bridging the gap between writing and wellness for that service provider's outpatient program, A Better Path Community Outreach Center!
The road to recovery is filled with reflection and self-discovery. The sessions are filled with aha-moments, new information, catharsis, laughter, and even uncomfortable emotions, but the safe space provided by The InkWELL gives room for all of these things to be experienced without fear of judgment or exclusion.
