One of those was the StoryBowl, a transformative experience we hosted in June 2019 in collaboration with artist Dana Endsley. The StoryBowl gave survivors a safe, nurturing space to express their stories through art—without the need to share them aloud. Through three writing rounds, participants reflected on their experiences, the resources that helped and their shared strength. These writings were then lovingly torn and layered into a multi-layered bowl, symbolizing resilience, healing and solidarity. At Brave Step, we believe in the power of storytelling, creative expression and community to support survivors on their journey. 💙 Thank you to all who have been part of this journey. #ThrowbackThursday #BraveStep10Years #StoryBowl #HealingThroughArt #SupportSurvivors"> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="sbi_load" > <a class="sbi_load_btn" href="javascript:void(0);"> <span class="sbi_btn_text">Load More...</span> <span class="sbi_loader sbi_hidden" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" aria-hidden="true"></span> </a> <span class="sbi_follow_btn"> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/abravestep/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"> <svg class="svg-inline--fa fa-instagram fa-w-14" aria-hidden="true" data-fa-processed="" aria-label="Instagram" data-prefix="fab" data-icon="instagram" role="img" viewBox="0 0 448 512"> <path fill="currentColor" d="M224.1 141c-63.6 0-114.9 51.3-114.9 114.9s51.3 114.9 114.9 114.9S339 319.5 339 255.9 287.7 141 224.1 141zm0 189.6c-41.1 0-74.7-33.5-74.7-74.7s33.5-74.7 74.7-74.7 74.7 33.5 74.7 74.7-33.6 74.7-74.7 74.7zm146.4-194.3c0 14.9-12 26.8-26.8 26.8-14.9 0-26.8-12-26.8-26.8s12-26.8 26.8-26.8 26.8 12 26.8 26.8zm76.1 27.2c-1.7-35.9-9.9-67.7-36.2-93.9-26.2-26.2-58-34.4-93.9-36.2-37-2.1-147.9-2.1-184.9 0-35.8 1.7-67.6 9.9-93.9 36.1s-34.4 58-36.2 93.9c-2.1 37-2.1 147.9 0 184.9 1.7 35.9 9.9 67.7 36.2 93.9s58 34.4 93.9 36.2c37 2.1 147.9 2.1 184.9 0 35.9-1.7 67.7-9.9 93.9-36.2 26.2-26.2 34.4-58 36.2-93.9 2.1-37 2.1-147.8 0-184.8zM398.8 388c-7.8 19.6-22.9 34.7-42.6 42.6-29.5 11.7-99.5 9-132.1 9s-102.7 2.6-132.1-9c-19.6-7.8-34.7-22.9-42.6-42.6-11.7-29.5-9-99.5-9-132.1s-2.6-102.7 9-132.1c7.8-19.6 22.9-34.7 42.6-42.6 29.5-11.7 99.5-9 132.1-9s102.7-2.6 132.1 9c19.6 7.8 34.7 22.9 42.6 42.6 11.7 29.5 9 99.5 9 132.1s2.7 102.7-9 132.1z"></path> </svg> <span>Follow on Instagram</span> </a> </span> </div> <span class="sbi_resized_image_data" data-feed-id="sbi_17841400557277585#3" data-resized="{"18155554885360426":{"id":"485951042_1376501193782994_4551716281888545304_n","ratio":"1.00","sizes":{"full":640,"low":320,"thumb":150},"extension":".webp"},"18091251301570251":{"id":"488363510_1561050904584166_1538335898973221943_n","ratio":"0.56","sizes":{"full":640,"low":320,"thumb":150},"extension":".webp"},"18049038053356955":{"id":"485378556_1377253947041052_3362878247355811142_n","ratio":"1.00","sizes":{"full":640,"low":320,"thumb":150},"extension":".webp"}}"> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div class="et_pb_section et_pb_section_7 et_section_regular" > <div class="et_pb_row et_pb_row_12"> <div class="et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_20 et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child"> <div class="et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_6 et_pb_text_align_center et_pb_bg_layout_light"> <div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h1>Sign up for our Newsletter</h1></div> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_code et_pb_code_1"> <div class="et_pb_code_inner"><iframe onload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" height="296" allowTransparency="true" allow="payment" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="width:100%;border:none" src="https://secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/vbfPZcOOuh9AyQNgSS8cAw"><a href="https://secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/vbfPZcOOuh9AyQNgSS8cAw">Fill out my LGL Form!</a></iframe></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> <footer id="main-footer"> <div id="Footer" class="et_pb_with_border et_pb_section et_pb_section_9 et_pb_with_background et_section_regular" > <div class="et_pb_row et_pb_row_13"> <div class="et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column_21 et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough"> <div class="et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_4"> <span class="et_pb_image_wrap "><img src="https://bravestep.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bravestep-registered-cropped-footer.png" alt="" title="bravestep-registered-cropped-footer" class="wp-image-7045" /></span> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_7 et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light"> <div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>At Brave Step, we work to build a strong, supportive community by helping adults impacted by sexual violence claim the life they deserve;
