Two female activists have started a revolution of healing. It began Valentine’s Day 2014 (that’s Feb. 14, for those of you who don’t observe the “holiday”). They created #SurvivorLoveLetter on Twitter for survivors of sexual violence to reclaim a potentially painful day and turn it into a love fest … for themselves! Brilliant.
There is also a Tumblr page where people are posting creative photos of their letters. Full disclosure: As an art therapist, this project is pretty much what I live for. People healing through creative expression is stunning to witness. Read a few of the moving letters below.
