For Helpers and Healers, LGBTQ+ & Neuro Affirming
Monday, March 9, 2025 | 6:30–8 PM ET | Live on Zoom | Pay What You Can
Craft & Community Circle is a gathering offering gentle connection and a supportive space to replenish through side-by-side creativity.
Bring any project you’re working on and settle into a circle where you can craft, chat, share, or simply exist in community—no pressure, no perfection, just connection.
Enjoy quiet co-regulation, meaningful conversation, and the grounding presence of creating alongside others in a community that truly gets it.
What This Gathering Is
Craft & Community Circle is a monthly virtual creative gathering for LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent helpers, healers, clinicians, and caring professionals who are craving authentic connection without performance.
This is not a workshop.
It’s not therapy.
It’s not networking.
It’s a gently facilitated, structured space to replenish through side-by-side creativity.
Bring any project you’re currently working on — knitting, crochet, journaling, collage, painting, writing, mending, digital art, organizing, or something beautifully unfinished. There is no theme and no expectation to produce anything polished.
You’re invited to craft, chat, share about your process, or simply exist in supportive company. This space is designed for co-regulation, quiet companionship, and meaningful conversation among people who understand the emotional labor of helping professions.
Camera on or off.
Mic on or muted.
Chatty or quiet.
No pressure. No perfection. Just connection.
We need more spaces for real, affirming community care. This is one of them.
This Space Is For You If
• You’re an LGBTQIA+ and/or neurodivergent helper, healer, therapist, social worker, medical professional, spiritual leader, or caring professional feeling depleted or isolated.

• You crave community that affirms all parts of your identity.
• You want connection without forced vulnerability.
• You’re tired of being “on” and want a space where you don’t have to perform.
