Dear Voices of Strength Family,
I want to take a moment to personally thank every one of you for your support, encouragement, and trust over the past five years. Whether you donated, shared our posts, joined an event, or just stayed in the fight, you’ve been part of something real and necessary.
Voices of Strength is moving into a new chapter. The work isn’t stopping—it’s just continuing in a new way, and under my own name. You’ll still see the same commitment to justice, truth, and community, but now through my personal advocacy, journalism, and direct support for impacted communities.
This isn’t goodbye. The VOS website and pages will remain up as a resource and legacy archive—there’s still so much value there, and people continue to discover those stories every day.
If you’d like to stay connected or keep supporting the work, here’s how:
I’d also love to invite you to join me live tonight at 7 PM PST on YouTube. I’ll be sharing more about this transition, what’s ahead, and answering any questions. It’s a celebration, but it’s also a way for us to connect and keep building together.

Thank you for being part of this community. I appreciate you more than words can say. We’re not done—the work continues, and I’m excited for what’s next.
With gratitude,
Marissa Barrera
Founder, Voices of Strength
