Love burritos? Yeah you do, you live in the Bay Area! But that’s a bait and switch- this is really about helping the food insecure with the folks at Burrito Project SF need volunteers for Monday. Sign up here: campsite.bio/burritoproject… #MutualAid #BayAreaMutualAid

@SUBasicNeeds We’d love to hear what groups have done that’s working to maintain their quality of life and a steady stream of participants- it often feels like the work of building a better world is too much. Who’s got tips and solutions to share out? #MutualAid #BayAreaMutualAid

We were sad to see this update from @SUBasicNeeds & are so glad to see them taking care of themselves. #MutualAid is HARD WORK and Coalition members are reporting extremely high levels of burnout along with decreasing rates of participation. + instagram.com/p/CTESpF7LNEG/
