Safer Spaces Virtually Workshop

Recovery Dharma is committed to creating spaces where everyone in our sangha can practice with a sense of safety, trust, and belonging. That care is just as important in our online spaces as it is when we gather in person.

In this workshop, we’ll explore practical ways to navigate the unique challenges of online meeting spaces. We’ll talk about setting up safer Zoom rooms, preparing for disruptions, responding skillfully when difficult situations arise, and supporting participants when harm or discomfort occurs.

Together, we’ll look at tools and guidelines that facilitators and community members can bring back to their own meetings, while making ample space to share experiences and learn from one another.

This workshop is an opportunity to strengthen our skills and consider how each of us can help care for the online community. Whether you’re new to facilitating or have years of experience to offer, we hope you will come ready to learn, share, and practice together as we work toward creating safer and more welcoming spaces for everyone.
