Mission
A Window Between Worlds is dedicated to empowering individuals and communities impacted by violence and trauma through a transformative healing arts program.

Vision
A Window Between Worlds views art as a catalyst to release trauma, build resilience and ignite social change.  When individuals create art in a safe community they can be heard and respected — replacing violence and shame with safety and hope.

AWBW supports 300+ direct service organizations to incorporate creative expression into their work with trauma survivors. Our trainings, curriculum, and ongoing support strengthens our program partners' ability to better assist those they serve.

Since it's founding in 1991, A Window Between Worlds has partnered with over 800 direct service organizations and trained more than 4,700 Windows Facilitators, who have provided more than 350,000 children and adults affected by trauma with creativity as a tool for reflection, empowerment, and transformation.

Our current network of over 800 Windows Facilitators, located in 39 states and six countries, offer opportunities for creative expression to children and adults who've experienced domestic violence, homelessness, child abuse, incarceration, sexual assault, substance abuse, community violence, intergenerational trauma, and more. 

The AWBW philosophy is grounded in the idea that our art workshops are a “Window of Time” — a safe, non-judgmental space where participants can authentically express their identity, hopes, dreams, experiences and truths. In this environment, participants can fully benefit from the process of creating art.
