About Us
At The Healing Hive Foundation, we are a beacon of hope and renewal for BIPOC women who have bravely faced the shadows of sexual trauma. Founded in 2023 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we emerged from a deep-seated need to address the often unspoken challenges these courageous women face. Our foundation is more than just a support system; it's a movement towards healing, empowerment, and transformation.
In a world where silence often surrounds sexual trauma, especially in BIPOC communities, The Healing Hive stands as a sanctuary. We believe in healing the whole person through a unique blend of trauma-informed, holistic, and creative approaches. Our services, ranging from support groups to creative arts therapy and practical daily empowerment tools, are designed to nurture not just the mind and body but the spirit, too.
Every survivor's journey to recovery is a powerful story of resilience and hope.
At The Healing Hive, we are committed to helping each survivor write her own story of triumph, providing a community of support every step of the way. Join us in our mission to bring light to the darkness of trauma, one life at a time.
“We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.”-Maya Angelou
