- Individual
- Individuals grouped locally
- Local groups bring immediate change in local town and surrounding areas
- Local groups communicate / coordinate for state & national action
- Coordinated national action (via local groups) brings change nationally
You can only start local. That's how this all works.
Find a group doing the following:
- Distributing shelf stable food and fresh produce
- Making and serving hot meals
- Peer to peer mental health
- Homeless / Houseless outreach & support (especially during winter right now)
- Civil rights advocacy & action (pick your group and cause)
- Education, Literacy, Library support
- Etc Et Al
These groups are already established. They have knowledge and experience. Plug in where they need you. Start with simple tasks. Listen, learn, meet people. Keep showing up on a regular schedule that you cab sustain. Don't worry about picking the right group immediately. Once you start with one group, you'll learn about others. Move to where you like after you get started.
These groups are coordinating. They are working together with other groups across town and with similar groups across the county.
Pitch in as you can. We need you. You need this. You can help right now. You can push back right now.
Push back.
(If you need help getting started, DM me with your city / town / closest town, and I'll help you search for a group to begin work with.)

There is a FUCK TON of us working to push back against Project 2025 and the Christo-Fascists.
Just gotta get plugged in.
I'm not leaving. I have family here that can't travel with me. I'm digging in for the long haul.

If you are new to mutual aid and building (or joining) community, start with a local need.
One that you can do without any training or previous experience:
Like distributing food.
Like going with NAACP to a local townhall meeting.
Like escorting abortion patients if you're up for it.
That gets you plugged in. Lets you learn how these things go. Gets you listening and meeting folks. Lets you learn about other groups.
To be VERY CLEAR: Distributing food at a food pantry is an entrance point to fighting a national fascist movement.
If you are completely new, read Dean Spade's book "Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next)".
It's free in various formats here (including HTML, PDF, EPUB, etc): https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/dean-spade-mutual-aid
It's also available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and your local library.
Read it. It's a quick read.
Go join a group.
This isn't charity.
This is resiliency and resistance.
