Radical Rest is co-created when three parties volunteer their time to come together…

  1. 2SLGBTQIA+ Non-Profit Organization

  2. Host Location like a retreat center, large home, or yoga center

  3. Radical Rest Guides

We partner with a local 2SLGBTQIA+ Non-Profit Organization to make Radical Rest happen.

We ask Non-profit Partners to provide –

  • community outreach & registration to local 2SLGBTQIA+ attendees

  • assistance finding a hosting partner & housing for Radical Rest Guides

  • digital and in-person ways to donate to your non-profit at the retreat

  • donation receipts

  • 2 volunteers to assist at the retreat

Please contact me if you are interested in bringing Radical Rest to your community.

We look for Hosting Partners who can comfortably fit 25 day guests at their hotel, retreat center, yoga studio, or home.

We ask Hosting Partners to provide –

  • meditation room or covered outdoor area (about 30’ x 30’) that can be silent

  • 2+ bathrooms for guests

  • filtered water for guests & tea station

  • public parking for 20 cars

  • gardening project & tools

  • 2 rooms to host the retreat guides for 3 nights

Hosting Partners receive a donation receipt for the market value of the donated space & materials.
