How AI describes Common Threads

The Common Threads Project provides psychological trauma care for survivors of sexual and gender-based violence by combining neuroscientific and socio-cultural understanding of trauma with an ancient practice in which women sew their stories onto cloth, delivered by locally trained therapists through partner organizations worldwide. They host a virtual/exhibition of story cloths and run projects in Ecuador, Nepal, the DC area, New York, Nigeria, and Seattle to support healing and share survivor stories. Their mission is to ensure that all survivors have access to high-quality psychological care, moving them from victims to survivors to agents of change.
