Lessons Learned on Our 13 year Healing Justice Journey
Saturday, December 18
3:00-5:00PM EST | Online | Free
As part of Third Root Community Health Center’s final season, join past and present Third Root worker-owners and collective members in this virtual panel. This panel is part commemoration, and part collective sharing of our lessons learned, and wishes for the future of healing justice.
In our final moments as a collective, we dream of this work as seeds that scatter to the wind, and take root as future healing justice endeavors in many corners of the globe. What does Third Root’s legacy of healing justice look like when freed from a place and building? Join, remember, and dream with us.
