Thanks to everyone who is showing up and participating in summer healing circles. Community gatherings continue every other Wednesday (see below for details). National Healing Collective and Atunse Justice League are also preparing a training to skill community members so they can facilitate future healing circles in the community and beyond. Please reach out if you’re interested in participating in the training and our facilitators will follow up with more information.

We are also returning to the Memory Walk these next several weeks, as San Francisco Public Works builds on the work of Office of Cheryl Barton and Studio-MLA to complete the conceptual design before the end of summer. The project team will be sharing a few design elements related to paving, fencing, and sculpture, for community feedback at these upcoming events on Buchanan Mall:

Tuesday 8/1, 4-8pm – National Night Out

Saturday 8/5, 2-8pm – Backpack Giveaway and Health Fair

Hope to see you soon!
