The members of the World Trade Center Survivors’ Network share
personal accounts of courage and survival. Having experienced
trauma, difficulty and change, we offer unique perspectives of how to
overcome the challenges we are all presented with in our daily lives.

We are able to tailor our presentation to fit your group’s needs. We place speakers throughout the Tri-state area for:
