November 24th, 2021 Updates
As so-called holidays consistently remind us of the mourning and resistance led by so many of our communities, we do hope you get a chance to rest this week. We deserve to rest as we do this work, no matter what that looks like for you. Thank you for the work you do and may this transitional season be filled with the care we all deserve.
