This is a safe space ONLY for people who racially identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color.

For the safety and protection of this group, we ask that you have your video on at the beginning of every meeting to verify your identity before being admitted into the virtual healing space. This is a safe space for people who racially identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color.

If for some reason you are unable to use the video, because you are at work or it doesn’t work, or for another reason, please let the facilitator or a co-host know through the chat feature. You will be placed in a waiting room while other participants are being screened and admitted. You will need to be able to find a place to use the video at least briefly before being admitted into the meeting. If you are someone who presents as white but feels that you belong in this space, you may be asked questions on how racism personally affects your life.

If there is no response when asked to turn on your video and/or audio and no response through the chat, you will be respectively removed from this meeting. We are creating a safe space where people can share their recovery authentically and confidentially.

If you do NOT identify as a part of our BIPOC community and are an ally, the best way that you can support us is by leaving the meeting now and honoring our sacred space. If you are someone who presents as white but feels that you belong in this space, please acknowledge this when it comes time for introductions so that we can welcome you as someone who personally experiences racism in your daily life.

If you are calling in, we ask that you unmute and introduce yourself during the introduction part of the meeting.

To protect the safety of our group, we will not admit latecomers who arrive 15 minutes past the start of the meeting. We encourage you to arrive early to allow time for verifying your identity.

If you have a Security or Safety concern at any time during the meeting, please use the Chat feature to alert the facilitator or a co-host.

Thank you.
