Join IWAV for this 7-part workshop series on exploring community care as a path toward prevention & collective safety. Each workshops focuses on a common “gap” we experience in ourselves and our communities, and then offers tools, reflections, and skills to move toward greater compassion and connection.Through conversation and practice, participants move through key themes — from avoidance to acknowledgement, burnout to boundaries, isolation to community, etc. — learning how to build resilience, integrity, and skill. Each workshop builds upon the last, guiding participants through a journey of becoming more attuned, capable, and connected.
Together, we reimagine what safety can mean when it’s rooted in care.
