When Fear Divides Us, Community Brings Us Back—Let’s Talk About It.
How do we stay informed without being overwhelmed? How do we keep ourselves safe—mentally, emotionally, and physically—while navigating times of uncertainty? What is our role in shaping what comes next?
Join SpeakUp ReachOut, Mountain Pride, The Bookworm of Edwards, and Mountain Youth for an urgent and timely panel discussion on how to respond to the current social and political climate. Given these uncertainties, let’s explore how we can build community and create connections.
This conversation will explore:
· How to stay informed without drowning in negativity.
· What it means to show up—for ourselves, for each other, for our future.
· Navigating fear, anger, and activism.
· How to find community when it feels like everything is coming apart.
· The power of storytelling in healing and resistance.
· Resources available for those struggling with mental health, identity, and safety.
Our panel will be moderated by Mads Partridge from Mountain Pride. Panelists will include Molly Booker, author of Magic in the Mess, alongside leaders from suicide prevention, youth advocacy, LGBTQ+ support, and community resilience. Together, we will explore how to move forward, how to take care of ourselves and each other, and how to show up in ways that matter.
Now is the time for courage, for connection, and for action. Let’s find a way forward together.
This event is FREE to attend. Childcare and dinner will be provided.
