Do you have access to an outdoor area? Can you go to a park and take over a picnic table in the shade for an entire day? Or does your building have a community room you can book for yourself?
This dedicated Trust prioritizes healing and gestures of community kindness and belonging to those members in our community who have been attacked by bias, hate, and ignorance. They send gifts, cards, hugs and listeners.
