Since 2004, Joyful Heart has been a leading national organization with a mission to transform society’s response to sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse, support survivors’ healing, and end this violence forever.
Joyful Heart carries out its mission through an integrated program portfolio of education and advocacy. Our work is paving the way for innovative approaches to treating trauma; igniting shifts in the way the public views and responds to sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse; and reforming and advancing policies and legislation to ensure access to justice for survivors.

The theatre and the library: these are the best places to rejoice in reflections of our lives as well as the lives of others. Banning, censoring, and barricading books and plays doesn’t just eradicate people’s stories - it makes a statement that their lives are less important. Our cultural spaces should celebrate the joy of all people by including Black joy, the joy of Indigenous people and people of color, the joy of LGBTQIA+ people, Latine joy and Asian joy, Muslim joy and Jewish joy, disabled joy, immigrant joy, and the joy of children and young people. Founded in 2022, No Book Bans supports access to art that reminds us all of our own power and that opens our eyes to a bigger world.

NO BOOK BANS.
