Looking for Fall 2022 Show Production Team Members! 🎬

Call for Fall 2022 Show Production Team Members

We are coming back to the stage in 2022! With several shows already in production for Fall 2022, we are looking for individuals who are interested in joining a team in their area! Production teams will go through our brand new online modular training - Brave Academy - to prepare you for your journey in producing a show and joining the Brave movement. When you join This Is My Brave, you are signing on to empower individuals in your community to put their names and faces to their own stories of recovery from mental illness and addiction. By doing so, you will be putting an end to mental health stigma in your community.

Fall 2022 Shows looking for Production Team Members:
Los Angeles, CA
Eagle Valley, CO
Northern Colorado (Fort Collins, Loveland, Estes Park, and Greeley)
South Florida (Broward, Miami-Dade, and Monroe Counties)
DeKalb, IL

Does this sound like something you're interested in? If so, please reach out to Program Manager Katie Grana (katiegrana@thisismybrave.org) for more information!

Finding Un-Brave

New on the Blog by Traci Powell

"...I hope you give yourself permission to become un-brave. Step into the courage that allows you to embrace the fears that are the key to your strength, your compassion and your humanity, and may you show that courage first to yourself and the parts of you that are hurting, so that you can be genuinely and authentically courageous for others."
