Just Poetry was a live fundraiser and online poetry reading to honor and illuminate experiences in the healthcare community.
“Actions for Transformation” was the theme of the 2023 event. Listener Poets & poemees examined the connection, humanization, + meaning that flow from our work. We explored how the healthcare world benefits from engaging in five actions for transformation elicited by our programs.
Hear stories of courage in the face of inequities and gain an understanding of how listening and poetry support wellbeing and resilience.
Learn how your donations help bring these stories alive to spark systemic change, and to fuel an equal care world where feeling heard, safe, and seen is a village norm.
[The recording of our 2022 event, featuring six more incredible stories and conversations with Listener Poets and poemees around health equity, is also available.]
