About Color Your Story Onto Mine Inc. (CYSOM)

---

At CYSOM (Color Your Story Onto Mine), we believe that true healing is a journey of transformation that begins within the self and extends outward, impacting families, communities, and organizations. We offer comprehensive services aimed at creating a full circle of healing, empowering not just individuals but the leaders and advocate organizations who support them.

Our core mission is to guide people and organizations through the process of healing by fostering mental health awareness, empowerment, and community. We understand that healing is not linear—it's a dynamic, interconnected process that requires support at all levels. Whether you're an individual recovering from trauma, a leader guiding others through recovery, or an advocate looking for resources and tools to support your cause, CYSOM provides the tools and resources needed to navigate this transformative journey.

For Leaders
CYSOM offers training and mentorship programs designed to help leaders in various sectors—including healthcare, education, government, and nonprofits—understand the dynamics of mental health, trauma recovery, and social artistry. Our leaders receive the skills and strategies*

necessary to inspire change, advocate effectively, and support the people they serve.

For Advocate Organizations
We partner with advocacy organizations to equip them with effective tools, training, and programs aimed at empowering individuals impacted by mental health challenges, addiction, domestic violence, sexual trauma, street violence, lead poisoning, and more. Our services help these organizations strengthen their outreach, improve their support networks, and ensure a holistic approach to healing within the communities they serve.

Our Approach to Full Circle Healing
1. Holistic Support: CYSOM believes in a full-circle approach to recovery that addresses the mind, body, and spirit. By offering social artistry for mental health and other therapeutic resources, we ensure that people not only heal from trauma but also learn to thrive.
 
2. Trauma-Informed Leadership: Whether working with mental health professionals or advocacy leaders, we ensure all stakeholders receive trauma-informed training. This enables them to understand the impact of trauma and lead with empathy and compassion.

3. Community Building: Healing is best achieved in a community. At CYSOM, we work to build supportive, resilient networks for individuals, leaders, and organizations alike, creating a safe space for collaboration, growth, and empowerment.

4. Advocacy & Awareness: We champion advocacy initiatives that highlight issues such as lead poisoning, the effects of autism, mental health awareness, and the need for support for incarcerated individuals. Our collaborative efforts ensure that marginalized voices are heard, and change is enacted at the systemic level.

Key Services We Provide:
- Social Artistry for Mental Health Workshops: Designed for individuals and organizations to use creative expression as a tool for healing, communication, and advocacy.
