Our Story

Every Voice Deserves to be Heard

The journey from high school into adulthood is one of the most significant — and least-talked-about — passages in the lives of people with special needs and their families. StoryWoven was created to change that.

A podcast from Community Based Services and Hudson Valley Interarts, StoryWoven is a welcoming space where authentic voices are uplifted and community is built through shared experience, creativity, and connection.

Guided by hosts Jon Harrison and Eric Archer Dahlberg and enriched by guest hosts, each episode brings together individuals with special needs, their families, caregivers, advocates, artists, and support professionals — the people who know this journey from the inside out.

Some transitions come with a map. This one doesn't — but you don't have to navigate it alone."

A Partnership Between

Community Based Services X Hudson Valley InterArts

Every person has a story. Every story deserves to be heard. We are stronger when we share our experiences.

We create honest space to discuss the high school-to-adulthood transition — its challenges, breakthroughs, and everything in between.

Art and expression are not luxuries — they are pathways to confidence, healing, and identity. We celebrate creativity in all its forms.

Lived experience is the foundation of everything here. We don't speak for our community — we create space for our community to speak.
