Sara Baker uses writing as a tool to help people heal from trauma. We will talk about her own journey of healing from a series of devastating life events, the workshops she has conducted with cancer patients, and the program she is currently developing for the Athens-Clarke county jail. She'll also provide some suggestions for listeners who would like to use writing in their own healing process.

Sara has an M.A. in English from Boston College, and has published fiction and poetry in a wide range of literary journals and anthologies. You can read her thoughts about writing and healing at Word Medicine.
