Sponsored by Telethon, My Voice Matters is a trauma‑informed art therapy program designed for children and young people with disability who have experienced abuse or sexual violence. The program provides a safe, creative, and empowering space whereparticipants can explore wellbeing, body safety, relationships, identity, and grief through expressive art‑making.
Delivered over six weeks in three Perth‑based locations, the program supports young people to build emotional literacy, confidence, and help‑seeking skills within a supportive group environment. Each session is facilitated by trained art therapists using gentle, strengths‑based approaches that honour each participant’s voice, autonomy, and lived experience.
Across the program, young people are encouraged to express themselves in ways that feel right for them—through colour, movement, storytelling, and creative exploration-while connecting with peers who share similar experiences. The focus is on healing, empowerment, and reclaiming personal agency.
Once the form is submitted, someone will be in touch with possible dates and locations.
