ABOUT Stories That Heal

Stories That Heal is a free monthly event featuring local authors who have written books about their experience–or a loved one's experience–with mental illness.  Throughout the course of the hour, the featured author reads excerpts from their book, shares details about their life, and takes questions from the audience. The welcoming environment at City of Asylum provides the perfect setting for this intimate discussion about individual experience, personal triumph, and the creative forces that help so many people achieve recovery.
