Healing Stories Creative Writing Program
Transform Your PANS PANDAS Experience into a Powerful Narrative
The Healing Stories program is a *four-part, virtual creative writing workshop series designed for Canadians affected by PANS PANDAS—whether as individuals with the condition, parents/caregivers, or siblings. Tailored for beginner to intermediate writers, this program helps participants capture their personal journeys with PANS PANDAS, offering a means for healing and connection, whether their story remains private or is shared with others.
Led by Quin, our program guide, each session introduces a different writing genre, allowing participants to explore new ways to express their experiences. Between sessions, Quin provides personalized editorial support through one-on-one virtual meetings, offering feedback and encouragement. By the end of the program, each participant will have crafted a Healing Story that they can feel proud of.
