Houselessness in natural areas: support sessions for land & water stewards
Thur, Dec. 15
Thur, Jan. 19
Thur, Feb. 16
1:30 to 3 p.m.
Online
In partnership with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation’s Human Nature program, we offer monthly online peer support sessions tailored to land and water stewards seeking resources and support engaging with unhoused community members living in parks and natural areas. Facilitated by Trauma Informed Care educators, these peer support sessions will be a space for discussion and collective problem solving around key challenges faced by those who steward our parks and natural areas. Topics include trauma-informed rules enforcement, best practices for preparing unhoused populations for extreme weather and natural disasters, and de-escalation techniques. Participants are welcome to join the group any time.
Free. Please email Tara@theintertwine.org to be added to the calendar invite.
