VOICES August Newsletter

Dear Families and Friends,
Planning for VOICES 2025 NYC Symposium is well underway, and our panel of experts will present a very informative program. Once again, the presentations will highlight the critical work of international experts in law enforcement and counterterrorism, as well as the tireless efforts of our 9/11 partners who continue to serve the 9/11 Community. The agenda and a list of confirmed speakers to date is available on our website. The Symposium is free. We hope you will register to join us in person or online!
Thanks to the support of 9/11 Day and AmeriCorps the VOICES Symposium will include our second annual 9/11 Day of Service Project. Attendees will help assemble Preparedness backpacks that will be distributed at the event, and at upcoming preparedness trainings.
As the anniversary of 9/11 approaches, we are providing several timely programs. On Wednesday, August 13th Zaneta M. Gileno, LCSW, CT a grief professional and social worker, will present a webinar, The Evolution of Grief: Promoting Resilience After Loss.
Additionally, in September we are hosting Our VOICES Together Support Groups facilitated by our colleagues from the American Group Psychotherapy Association (AGPA). The virtual gatherings are planned annually for 9/11 victims’ families, responders and survivors to come together in advance of, and following the anniversary.
The families, colleagues and friends of those who died or survived the mass shooting in New York City last week, continue to be in our thoughts. If you or someone you know was impacted, please contact our office at 203-966-3911 or via email at support [at] voicescenter.org (support[at]voicescenter[dot]org).
With warm regards,
Mary Fetchet & the VOICES Team
