" Transformative justice work grounded in community-informed action is at the core of what I do. Thus, as a Millennium Fellow, I'm more than excited to affect change by working alongside a cohort of bright, like-minded peers with whom I can build collective power that generates a relevant, lasting impact. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Regenerative Movement Space
For my Millennium Fellow Social Impact Initiative, I have been leading a peer working group that draws on self-conducted research and community-informed experimentation to examine the contours of movement, agriculture, and other embodied practices of healing as means of sustaining social movement work. As a collective, we are further working to build out an organizational infrastructure rooted in care and regenerative strategy with the goal of addressing the nuanced and frequently overlooked mental health challenges of student organizers, which are more often than not first-generation, low-income queer youth of color. By developing such an infrastructure, we aspire to eventually implement a community-driven organization that employs research-based modes of embodied practice to educate, empower, and equip local student organizers with the knowledge and community support necessary to deal with complex mental health and movement burnout.
