HelpLine SARN Invites Survivors to Retreat from the Heat during Summer Healing-Centered Workshop

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE   

July 15, 2019  

Delaware, OH – The HelpLine Sexual Assault Response Network (SARN) invites Survivors of sexual assault to focus on relaxation and healing during the “Retreat from the Heat” workshop on Saturday, Aug. 10 at 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The location of the workshop will be disclosed upon registration; the event is free with refreshments provided.  

This workshop provides a safe space for Survivors who have experienced abuse, assault, harassment, or relationship violence an opportunity to raise awareness about their strengths, resilience and coping strategies for positive change. Using art as a hands-on tool for expression, participants will be able to make and take home their projects. Attendees will also receive information on ways to cope with triggers and stress, access helpful resources and add new self-care strategies into their everyday lives.

“These workshops give Survivors a unique opportunity to process feelings, have fun, and engage in self-care; all while receiving support by trained advocates in a safe place,” said Nora Flanagan, SARN Coordinator and workshop facilitator. “We hope that participants gain additional skills to improve their mental and emotional well-being, while connecting with others who have similar experiences.”

The “Retreat from the Heat” workshop is one of the many initiatives and services that support sexual assault Survivors through its trauma-informed program offered in Delaware, Morrow, Crawford and Wyandot counties. Available to all survivors, SARN offers healing workshops, one-one-one crisis intervention and advocacy – regardless of when the assault occurred – and an annual retreat.  Additionally, trained SARN advocates are available to assist survivors at the hospital and with law enforcement immediately following an assault, and connects survivors to resources at HelpLine and in the broader community.

To register or learn more about SARN services, visit https://helplinedelmor.org/s-a-r-n/. If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, contact SARN on the free, confidential 24-hour support, information, referral, and texting line at 1.800.684.2324 or text helpline to 898211.
