SUMMARY:Caring for the Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:A weekend retreat for those doing emotional labor—such as therapists\, healthcare workers\, and climate justice organizers—using the Work That Reconnects spiral to process climate grief and build resilience together. The workshop features an anti-oppression approach\, focuses on resistance actions\, offers vegan and gluten-free meals\, is wheelchair accessible\, and accommodates neurodivergent needs. \nThis gathering is for anyone who identifies as doing emotional labor in their daily work or activism\, including: \n\n\n\nMental health\, social work\, and healthcare professionals\nClimate and social justice organizers and activists\nCaretakers\, mutual aid workers\, and community support roles\nAnyone who regularly holds space for the pain of others or for the pain of the world\n\n\n\nWe offer this workshop specifically for people who do emotional labor because this work has been consistently forgotten\, undervalued\, and disrespected under capitalism. It is work that disproportionately falls to women\, people of color\, queer and trans people\, and disabled people. We believe a just world is one in which emotional labor is taken seriously\, fairly compensated\, and supported by care for those who carry it. This workshop is our small and humble contribution toward bringing that world into being. \nCost is sliding scale ($0–$500) with free scholarships for BIPOC and low-income participants. Full attendance\, including an integration call\, is expected. \nFor more information\, click here \nAbout the Co-facilitators\nJulia Levine (she/her) is a New York-based social worker with theatre roots. She brings drama therapy into her social work practice to address mental health implications of the climate crisis with individuals and groups. Julia currently provides therapy and case management for people across the lifespan\, prioritizing trusting and collaborative relationships as the foundation for healing. She is drawn to practicing Work That Reconnects because of the integrative\, iterative\, and transformative nature of the spiral to support life on earth.

Living outside the gender binary taught them to notice where systems draw hard lines between people from different walks of life\, and between humans and the living world. They’ve been facilitating climate grief circles for the past five years and are currently developing their Work That Reconnects facilitation skills.
