Community Agreements

Welcome to Dear Crisis 🌀 — an emergent community coming together to navigate the messiness, discomfort, and chaos of this moment in time. To keep this a safe and generative space, a few simple agreements we invite you into:

  1. 1

    Welcome the stranger. No cliques here. If someone's new to the space, bring them in. Say hi, make the introduction, assume best intentions.

  2. 2

    Kinship over transactions. We're here to build relationships and human connection, not extract value. Share opportunities for mutual growth and learning — this is a place of reciprocity, not a marketplace.

  3. 3

    Show up for one another. Community means leading with care, taking responsibility, and finding ways to support the dreams and aspirations of the people around us.

  4. 4

    Meet disagreement with curiosity. This is a stressful time, and nobody has the metacrisis figured out. When you disagree, get curious before you get judgmental — the tension is part of the work.

  5. 5

    Share the space. Every message pings everyone. Take the time to write out one cohesive thought rather than many fragments, and if a conversation is heating up or getting personal, take it to DMs.

  6. 6

    (Real) feedback is welcome. Tell us what's landing and what isn't — DM an organizer anytime. Iterative learning is what this space is all about: we're all on a journey to become better, not perfect.

Glad you're here. 🤍
