Center resilience with us

The past few years have not been easy – for any of us. There have been too many moments of great pain and suffering. Please know that we stand with you, united in the sadness, anger, frustration, grief, and even numbness. Your feelings are valid and we agree that there is much work to do.

We also share your overwhelm about where to begin, and we invite you to start by centering resilience with us, and to spread the word with those in your circles.
