When traditional gathering places for poetry experiences were shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Trapeta B. Mayson, the city of Philadelphia 2020-2021 Poet Laureate, wanted to find a way to reach people with poetry.
In addition to her work as a poet, Trapeta is a licensed clinical social worker, with a focus on mental health. She is aware of the positive connection between poetry and mental health, so she tapped into the strong community of poets in the Philadelphia area and created The Healing Verse Poetry Line.
