WHAT IS COMMUNITY CARE?

We know that our ability to survive and thrive is based on radical acts of interdependence. Through monthly workshops and talks, we will build skills and knowledges that will make our communities safer and stronger. We seek to share these things in an inclusive, safe, non-judgemental, voluntary space where all are free to learn and share together.

Workshops last Monday of the month in Youngstown, Ohio
