Are you interested in building a network of care and resistance in your local community? Join Shareable for a four-week mutual aid learning series! Open to all, but designed for those just getting started to learn from seasoned mutual aid organizers and activists.

At this uncertain moment in US history, it is clearer than ever that communities must rely on each other to survive a second Trump term. Mutual aid is a tool to build community and meet basic needs while developing a shared political understanding. This learning and action webinar series will draw on the experience of mutual aid organizers and activists across the US to introduce the concept to new potential organizers ready to build a network of care and resistance in their local communities.

In the third session, you'll learn about the benefits and limitations of formal structures, financial basics, and fintech for mutual aid, as well as how to understand risk and safety protocols for mutual aid projects. Presenters include:

• Elijah Baucom, Founder, Everyday Security & Director, UC-Berkeley Cybersecurity Clinic

• Eirka Sato, Attorney, Sustainable Economies Law Center

• Sarah Philips, Campaigner, Fight for the Future

Closed captioning and Spanish interpretation will be available for this session.
