Each day of the challenge you will be presented with activities such as reading an article, listening to a podcast, reflecting on personal experience and more.

We're teaming up with Cuyahoga County Board of Health and A Vision Of Change Inc. to launch the Our Stories, Our Healing video series as part of an Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) project. This series will raise awareness that healing is possible through sharing the stories of community members who have overcome traumas and found healing. Mental health, substance use disorders and domestic violence are a few of the topics that will be explored throughout the series.
The group putting this series together hopes individuals who tune in will walk away knowing that they are not alone in the traumas they have endured and that healing is possible at any stage of life.
The first episode "We Call it Survival" will be released on March 26. Stay tuned for #OurStoriesOurHealing
