Register here: Grief and Resilience In Our Movements
In the wake of this election cycle and ongoing crises, many of us are grappling with profound grief and vicarious trauma. How do these emotions show up in ourselves, our communities, and our movements? And how can we harness this grief to fuel deeper connection, mobilization, and resilience in our fight for justice?
Action Network, Community Tech Alliance, Fair Future Lab, and We the People Michigan have partnered with the STOKE collective and invite you to join Grief & Resilience in Our Movements: Strengthening Our Movements Post-Election — a powerful webinar series exploring how grief, trauma, and joy intersect with our work for social justice. Together, we’ll examine the ways we can support each other and sustain our movements especially as we confront the impacts of the election cycle and ongoing global injustices.
Webinar Schedule:
