GROUPS
Fireweed Collective Groups are virtual spaces where folks can connect, and offer mutual aid with others who share similar life experiences and struggles.
Groups run for a month. They meet once a week online for 60 to 90 minutes. All support groups are sliding scale and are peer-led with the support of Fireweed Collective members. Your donations allow us to offer services at a low cost.
As we seek ways to honor Lilac’s work & legacy, we are hosting her beloved Spoonies groups with the support of past Spoonies members and Fireweed Collective members. We take on this work with tender hearts, a deep reverence and a desire to honor her vision with integrity, purpose, and love.
