Cultivating Safe Spaces Series | Part 2 | Knowing Our Rights – A Workshop with New Sanctuary Movement

Knowing Our Rights – A Workshop with New Sanctuary Movement
Wednesday, July 9 | 7:00 PM ET on Zoom
Join us for a workshop on how to support the immigrant justice movement with the New Sanctuary Movement of Philadelphia. NSM will share updates on what’s happening on the ground and how to stand in solidarity with immigrant communities right now—through Accompaniment, ICE Watch, campaigns, and direct actions. We’ll then take a deep dive into how to prepare our Meetings in case ICE ever comes to them.
Together, we’ll explore how ICE has begun encroaching on places of worship across the country, how to prepare your spaces and teams, and how to respond to fear and confront an agent if necessary.
Cultivating Safe Spaces Series
A Three-Part Online Series on Belonging, Rights, and Spirit-Led Action
How do we create spiritual communities where everyone feels safe, seen, and supported?
Join Philadelphia Yearly Meeting for Cultivating Safe Space, a three-part virtual series designed to support worship, witness, and community care. In this moment of ongoing harm and courageous healing, we’re coming together as Friends to listen deeply, learn practical tools for justice, and discern what Spirit is calling us to do — individually and collectively.
This series is open to all Friends and attenders, and is especially intended for those seeking ways to respond to concerns about safety, accountability, and inclusion within our yearly meeting.
