Safe Storytelling
Creative Visions aims to provide a safe environment for kids and teens to share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences with mental health.
We understand the weight of your stories and the bravery of the act of sharing these stories with a broader audience.
As such, we are providing the following guidelines to help you create and share your stories:
- Speak about your experiences in a way that is safe for you and your audience.
- This means steering clear of vivid details that describe suicidal ideation, self-harm, and other acts of violence.
- Do not share a story that makes you feel uncomfortable, unsafe, anxious, or traumatized.
Sharing a part of your story should never be difficult or traumatic for you! If it is, choose different stories from your experiences to tell.
At Creative Visions, we believe that change can be made by using the power of storytelling. And we believe stories can be told by anyone by using any creative expression. In other words, you can change the world through art and media.
If you haven’t yet, explore the examples of stories in our gallery. All of them tell stories that can connect you a little bit more to people you have never met.
Now, it’s time for you to become a storyteller by using your creativity.
