Being Well: A Community Care Gathering for Frontline Workers


  • The Beehive 1000 East 60th Street Los Angeles, CA, 90001 United States (map)

Being Well is a two-day, invitation-only gathering created specifically for frontline workers in Los Angeles' homeless response sector.

We believe that healing is a form of resistance, care is a foundation, and that workers deserve wholeness—not burnout.

A Space Designed for You

Over these two days, you'll experience:

  • Curated wellness and healing workshops led by practitioners from our community

  • Peer support spaces to share your experiences and wisdom

  • Grounding rituals to support nervous system regulation

  • Rest areas where you can simply be

All in an environment that honors your whole self—your body, your story, your weariness, and your wisdom.

This event is by invitation only for:

What to Expect

Being Well is rooted in our core values:

  • Collective Care: We center interdependence and nourish the whole person.

  • Liberation in Practice: We reject extractive workplace norms and model alternatives grounded in healing.

  • Lived Experience as Wisdom: We honor the knowledge carried by those closest to the work and harm.

  • Rest as Resistance: We embrace rest as essential to individual and systemic resilience.

This gathering offers:

  • A chance to connect with peers who understand your work

  • Practices you can take back to sustain yourself

  • Space to imagine what workplaces centered in care could look like
