The Olympia Women’s Jazz Choir will be bringing their holiday spirit as they share seasonal favorites under the direction of Jessica Blinn

November 19, 2024, Hoquiam, WA – Public Health is proud to announce the premiere of the 28-minute documentary, “Voices of Resilience,” which shines a powerful light on the issues of housing, homelessness, and the human experiences that inspire hope, recovery, and transformation.

Inspired by an outreach event in Fall 2022, Voices of Resilience shares the deeply moving stories of individuals who have experienced homelessness but have since found stable housing, sobriety, and a renewed sense of community. The documentary also features interviews with service providers who work tirelessly alongside these individuals, helping to support them in their journey of healing and growth.

Audience feedback from various community groups—including business owners, service providers, government representatives from the WA Department of Health (DOH) and Department of Commerce, as well as individuals featured in the film—has been overwhelmingly positive. Viewers have described the documentary as an uplifting and much-needed message of hope, particularly during the holiday season. The film underscores the successful elements that contribute to lasting, transformative change, offering a hopeful vision for addressing homelessness in our community.

We are excited to invite you to the Grand Premiere Screening of the documentary, “Voices of Resilience!”

Join us on Thursday, December 5th, 2024, for an inspiring evening at the 7th Street Theatre in Hoquiam. The screening will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be followed by a Q&A session with the documentary’s cast, including individuals featured in the film, service providers, law enforcement officers, and Public Health staff.

This is a unique opportunity to engage with those who have firsthand experience and those working on the frontlines to create meaningful change in our community. The event promises to be both informative and inspiring, offering a chance to connect with others who share the goal of making a difference in the lives of those affected by homelessness.

• Admission: FREE! (Popcorn is on us!)
• RSVP: RSVP is not required, but it is recommended through the following link:

Important Note from Theatre Management: To ensure the preservation of the historic theatre, please note the following:

• Only bottled drinks (soda or water) are allowed in the auditorium. No cans or open cups.
• Sticky foods such as cotton candy, candied popcorn, or similar items are prohibited.

This event is a unique opportunity to be part of an important conversation about homelessness, resilience, and the transformative power of community support. We are grateful to everyone who contributed to this project, especially Rick Moyer of Moyer Multimedia, whose expertise made this documentary truly special.

We look forward to seeing you at this impactful event. Together, we can continue to build a more compassionate, supportive, and resilient community.
