Building a people-centered and -led movement demands care for the well-being of those whose love, imagination, and labor are so deeply invested in our collective future. Rooted in the traditions of healing justice, which have nourished and sustained resistance and social change work in this country since its founding, The Action Lab’s Take a Breath Residencies offer up space for individual movement organizers, artists, and leaders to rest, reflect, and cultivate practices that will strengthen their efforts to imagine and create a more just and equitable future. 

We’re thrilled to welcome our first two 2022 cohorts of Take A Breath fellows to The Action Lab’s campus in Upstate New York. Two more cohorts will join us in the fall.
