My work as an advocate and artist is to help people through that process; for the good parts and the really challenging ones.” Arizona is now an official affiliate with “Beauty After Bruises”, a non-profit affiliation geared at helping trauma survivors, and “Rethink Stigma” non-profit organization focused at bringing psychoeducation to the public through a series of platforms.
