"Without police, wouldn't there be chaos?" "What about the bad people?" As anarchists we get asked these legit questions all the time. Don't be fooled by the bland title, this is a project that has the potential to change the world. This is a structured workshop to plan ways to keep our communities safe at all levels. We've talked about this forever, but it's time to put a stake in the ground. He

re are the challenges we'll tackle: new accountability process, community crisis response, cops and alternatives, education, mutual support, solidarity, defense of communities,and making the police obsolete.

Over the past year we've expanded the number of bed spaces and the size of the community room. We've sheltered 30 women and we've weathered the storm of a quarantine, emerging stronger than ever. We've been able to come to the rescue for two extremely vulnerable individuals after the county had closed it's pandemic shelters.

We hope you can make it because we'd really love to see you again and celebrate with you.
Truly,
Brent
