What is a Practice Space?

"A Healing Justice Practice Space (HJPS) is an all-gender, allbodied, inclusive and accessible space for practicing and receiving healing that is built in partnership with social justice movement work and sites of political action.

These spaces typically offer a wide variety of health and healing services, including (but not limited to) first aid, counseling and crisis support, mediation services, massage therapy, acupuncture, energy work, herbal therapy, divination, art therapy, nutritional counseling, and yoga.

Sometimes they are aligned with public healthcare systems and sometimes they are independent.

Sometimes they include opportunities for building analysis and sharing political education, sometimes they focus solely on individual and collective healing."

Would something like this work to help us get started?

Also, my capacity will be a bit limited once the next semester starts, so I've reached out to and to see if they can recommend someone with the capacity to moderate and/or coordinate virtual programming.

I agree that its important to include many more voices around this topic and it would be nice to work with folks who have experience doing virtual around
