Resources and Support
The Healing link in the left-hand column will guide you to the range of services offered by VOICES' dedicated team of mental health professionals. Our key program related to Remembering and Healing is our 9/11 Living Memorial online digital archive, which is dedicated to commemorating the lives and stories of September 11, 2001 and the February 26, 1993 World Trade Center bombing. VOICES believes that it is crucial to preserve these stories, and the mementos that families and friends hold precious, for future generations. The dynamic web-based archive will be incorporated into the to-be-built National September 11 Memorial & Museum at the World Trade Center.
VOICES staff are traveling throughout the country holding workshops and meeting family members, rescue workers and survivors to photograph and digitize their keepsakes and document their stories. 9/11 family members, rescue workers and survivors are invited to participate in our workshops. Each workshop provides an opportunity to learn more about the 9/11 Living Memorial digital archive and how to create tribute pages in memory of your loved ones or to document your first-hand personal accounts. Please bring items for our staff to digitize such as photographs, memorial programs, written tributes, and other information. We also encourage you to bring quilts, artwork and tangible items that you would like us to photograph for the digital archive.
We will be holding workshops around the country over the coming year. Please click here for the current schedule. Registration is required. You may also contact our office if you would like us to host a workshop in your area.
