North Regional Library, Raleigh
Are you interested in the connection between writing and wellness? Whether you’re writing memoir, non-fiction, creative journaling, poetry or fiction, writing allows the writer and the reader space to process events and difficult places in our lives and ultimately allow for healing. In addition, writing gives the freedom for expression to those who may have difficulty expressing themselves such as children, people with disabilities and people who have experienced deep trauma.
If you’re interested in talking with other writers and exploring the healing aspects of writing, then join us at the North Raleigh Library on Wednesday. March 17th from 6:30-8:30pm.
Wellness Through Writing, sponsored by Write2Publish, is open to all and will meet the third Wednesday of every month at the North Raleigh Library, bringing together speakers, networking opportunities, and engaging themes exploring the connection between writing and healing.

Over the last five years, we have continued to blaze our own path and exceed all expectations. While our determination has proven to be successful inspiring others and being active in our community, we also recognize the importance of asking for support. There are times when we simply can’t do it alone.
We are actively working to find the right avenue and raise funds to provide supports in expanding our family. While we are looking for monetary funds, it is essential to us that these community fundraising events serve to celebrate and enhance connections within our community.
Specific needs include an accessible van, additional physical assistance for Barton and Megan individually, adaptive equipment such as a stroller attachment for a motorized wheelchair, accessible crib and baby carrier attachment for a motorized wheelchair.
We hope that you will join us in attending Family For Us Community Events- celebrating and fostering a sense of community and family.
