Our Principles

High Possibility, Low Expectation

Don’t be goal-oriented, be CURIOUS! Many things are possible, but we don’t expect interaction from anyone. We don’t make others responsible for our disappointment.
Trust & Trustworthiness

Communities like ours are built on trust, so we have to be our most trustworthy selves.
Clear Consent

Consent is an ongoing collaboration between two or more people in constant verbal, physical, and emotional dialogue about what each other needs to safely, willingly, and pleasurably interact.
High Support

Events like this can be fun, but they can also be hard. We strive to create an emotionally supportive environment that normalizes challenge.
Contribution

Our community is a co-creation by each participant. We expect and welcome active participation.
Inclusion

We commit to a stance of cultural humility, of resilience, and of learning -- and supporting one another's learning -- how to be excellent to one another.
