Come to the Building Bridges Conference 2025 for “What Helps, What Hurts: A Survivor’s Story of Systems, Healing, and What We Can Do Better” by Cheyenne Wilson. Cheyenne is the author of We Are the Evidence and brings her experience as a nurse and a survivor to advocate for systems change. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of what helps, what hurts, and what healing-centered engagement truly looks like - especially when justice isn’t achieved through traditional means. This session invites honest reflection and offers concrete, trauma-informed tools that professionals across systems can use to center survivors, reduce harm, and build trust in the moments that matter most.
