"Steel Smiling was thrilled to have Cecelia host a workshop as part of our mental health support programming for peacekeepers working in Allegheny County DHS's Community Violence Reduction Initiative. Cecelia and her team curated a wonderful experience that included a warm welcome, a grounding and mindfulness meditation experience, and a wellness mapping activity that engaged us creatively. We used materials provided to create maps that represent how we support our personal wellness. By the time we completed the maps, we felt comfortable enough to share our pieces with the group. The team curated a space that was welcoming and engaging such that we could put aside everything we all carry in our day jobs. Steel Smiling would enthusiastically invite Cecelia back for future collaborations, and we strongly encourage others to participate in the healing experiences she creates for the community."
