From Survival to Sanctuary: Meeting the Moment - Community First Aid and Embodied Practice

  • The Gym @ Judson Memorial Church 55 Washington Square South New York, NY, 10012 United States (map)

A coalition offering from Judson Memorial Church and Middle Church

Join in fellowship for a collaboration between Judson's Health and Safety Working Group and Middle Church's Meeting the Moment Task Force for a special event on Sunday February 9th. 

We will participate in a time of collective, embodied practice -- acknowledging how the challenges of these times lives in our bodies, and locating the powerful tools of faith, breath, and action together. Our special guest for the day will be Miriam, an ER RN and Street Medic who has been leading free anticarceral community first aid trainings in collaboration with Judson. Miriam will lead us in a session reviewing some basic collective readiness protocols for both sanctuary and street action in a range of scenarios, as well as addressing specific risks in this moment around police and ICE involvement. We'll close with actionable next steps and with an invitation to future offerings already in the works from Judson, Middle, and our network of radical faith spaces.
