A workshop with Antoinette Chen-See and Lilac Vylette Maldonado of Fireweed Collective.
How do mad, disabled, and neurodivergent people center our liberation as we survive and organize? Emotional Safety Plans (Mad Maps) are documents we create that help us to navigate our emotional terrains, particularly as they relate to issues like oppression and trauma. In Fireweed Collective’s Mad Mapping workshop, we will explore anti-oppressive approaches to emotional wellbeing, as well as build strategies for coping with and transforming individual struggles, especially in the larger context of social injustice. Join us as we learn about emotional safety planning and explore what we need to feel supported in our relationships and communities.
This workshop will take place from 6–8 p.m. ET. ASL and live transcription will be provided. Additional information can be found on the event page:
