A Window Between Worlds: 20 Years of Creativity and Healing

Can art help to end domestic violence? A Window Between Worlds believes that through creativity and healing, battered women and children can find a renewed sense of power and self. The images of survival, strength, and hope also spread the word about domestic violence, educating the public while survivors share their process of taking steps toward a better life.

Since 1991, A Window Between Worlds has provided healing tools through creative expression to 49,500 battered women and children in crisis centers and transitional homes. Art workshops provide a renewed sense of hope for women, helping them to realize that their lives are profound and their relationships are important. Their self-confidence is boosted, and they learn to value themselves more.
