Fireweed Collective
administrator@fireweedcollective.org
Fireweed Collective offers mental health education and mutual aid through a Healing Justice lens. They help support the emotional wellness of all people, and center the needs of those most marginalized by our society. Their work seeks to disrupt the harm of systems of abuse and oppression, often reproduced by the mental health system.
Fireweed Collective Groups are virtual spaces where folks can connect, and offer mutual aid with others who share similar life experiences and struggles. They include groups for POC, QTPOC, and Disabled/Chronically Ill/Neurodivergent Folks, among others.
Groups run for a month. They meet once a week online for 60 to 90 minutes. All support groups are sliding scale and are facilitated by members of Fireweed Collective.
National Queer and Trans Therapists of Color Network (NQTTCN)
info@nqttcn.com
NQTTCN is a healing justice organization actively working to transform mental health for queer and trans Black, Indigenous and People of Color (QTBIPOC).
Through political education and field building, they work to create a future where health, mental health, and healing practitioners build power to intervene against the harm perpetuated by the medical-industrial complex while actively creating new liberatory ecosystems of care for our communities. They envision a world where our movement organizations are more resilient and strategic with the tools to navigate and collectively heal from violence, trauma, crisis, and uncertainty by organizing with politicized health and healing practitioners aligned with healing justice.
