The Circle

Creating informal spaces for connection, reflection, and joy

The Circle is a monthly restorative space to support those impacted by identity-based trauma. All UMD members are welcome into The Circle, acknowledging that we are holding space for one another as we share. Restorative circles derive from Indigenous ancestral wisdom as a means for individual and community healing.

*To ensure the privacy of attendees, this space will never be recorded and attendance records are not maintained.

**After about 5 minutes past the hour, we will close entry to new attendees so that we can ensure that all participants receive quality care within this space. Since this is a healing space and not a webinar, we hope for all participants to engage to the best of their ability.

The Circle dates 2025-26
