A PARADIGM SHIFT IN CAPACITY BUILDING
The Collective Care Club represents a fundamental reimagining of how we sustain social change work – one that honors the wisdom of Audre Lorde, who taught us that "caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare."
In this powerful address, Wendy Martinez Marroquin reveals how the Collective Care Club can transform burnout culture into sustainable organizations built for the long haul.
THE CRISIS OF SUSTAINABILITY
“We have been operating in a state of crisis for almost four years. This is no longer sustainable. We must find a new way to move forward.”
Nonprofit organizations face unprecedented challenges that traditional approaches can't solve
“We are not looking at the root causes, the systemic practices that cause this [burnout], we are gaslighting.”
🔍The Problem
Organizations serving historically excluded communities are experiencing systemic burnout, high turnover, and diminishing capacity just when their work is most crucial. The sunset of COVID emergency funding coupled with increased political challenges has created a critical sustainability gap.
💡Our Solution
The Collective Care Club creates a membership-based community that transforms how organizations approach staff wellbeing and sustainability. Rather than treating burnout as an individual responsibility, we build collective practices and systems that make organizations more resilient to stress and burnout.
