OUR HISTORY

Healed With Scars came together in 2005. Upon leaving the hospital, Rosemary Worthy-Washington searched for support and other burn survivors. Unfortunately, there were no local support groups in the Philadelphia area. Rosemary decided to start Healed With Scars for the people who needed help transitioning back into our society, which can be difficult if you have facial burns. Rosemary saw a need and decided to solve it. Her main purpose is to help others who have been traumatically burned to overcome their many obstacles by encouragement and support group meetings. The years of servicing a person with burn injury has included the family members and friends of that said person. The support and encouragement from their own family and friends is a part of our process.
