"Between 2007 and 2015, I was a member of a SAGE/NYWC writing group led, in turn, by Rachel Kahn, Alex Samets, Jaime Shearn Coan, Aarti Soni, and then, for almost three years, by me.
"Each [leader] reinforced my reliance on the workshop and its methods to provide a safe space in which I could recover from my past and thrive in my present. It was my gratitude for their brilliant dedication that led me to volunteer."
