Our Partnership with The Lighthouse RVA
At Art for the Journey, we are deeply committed to promoting positive mental health and well-being through the power of art. Greg McQuade from CBS06 visited this program highlighting how AFJ’s art class provides solace and well-being and how The Lighthouse is an amazing organization helping strong persevering women in our community!
How Our Partnership Helps the Community
The LightHouseRVA is a Richmond based non-profit whose mission is to create a safe, loving place where women in recovery from Substance Use Disorder and volunteers alike find joy, hope, healing and empowerment to take their next best step. Art for the Journey has partnered with TLHRVA since 2023 to bring creative opportunities to these women, delivered by a team of faithful volunteers who provide relational support and personal connection alongside meaningful art-making. Art for the Journey and The LighthouseRVA work together to promote healing, wellness and independence through authentic community. – Jamie Wigginton, COO
“We want everyone to feel that this is not just a “program”. It is a place to come and take a deep breath.” Words by Emily DuBose, Founder of The LightHouse RVA .
