AMPLIFYING VOICES, PROMOTING HEALING
We, as Project SPEAKS, Inc. hope to share and bring exposure to these aspects to communities at large. Everyone, regardless of identity, should have their voices heard without the threat of silencing. Marginalized populations have historically had their voices challenged and their pain neglected. We want our communities to be heard and their healing to be the focal point of their growing process.
