A digital story is a two to five minute multi-media narrative that uses photos, video clips, art, and sound to share a personal life story. Digital stories are a meaningful product, videos that include voices that are under-represented and are created through a meaningful process, a participatory media workshop that encourages individual self-reflection and growth.

• Celebrate successes and lessons learned

• Opportunity for personal and community healing

• Offer a creative outlet for individual and collective sharing
