Collaborative Spoonie Model

Collaborative Spoonie Model is an original OFC framework applying the social model of disability and spoon theory to the Holacratic working method. This model centers members’ wellbeing, wherein they only share what is within their energy to offer. In collaborative social justice projects, prioritizing well-being, guided by the 10 principles of disability justice, ensures sustainable movement building by respecting diverse energy levels and fostering an inclusive environment.

Requesting Accessibility for Out-In-Tech local event

Organizations striving for queer inclusion should strive to minimize access frictions for disabled community members. In-person events that include information about accessibility and organizer’s desires and expectations for the event allows for more informed decisions. By requesting attendees wear masks, we are being more inclusive of disabled & immunocompromised members of our queer community as we continue to navigate surviving an ongoing pandemic.

Jesenia’s 2023 Quarantine Residency Experience

This residency is offered by Calling Up Justice and was a wonderful opportunity to learn from Claudia Alick, a disabled artist, activist, and social justice producer who understands the value of collaboration in both the digital and physical realms. The importance of such residencies cannot be overstated, as they provide an exceptional platform for artists to unite, learn, and nurture their creativity.

One Free Community Needs Assessment

At One Free Community (OFC), we’re embarking on a Community Needs Assessment journey! We believe that to create a community that truly serves, uplifts, and empowers everyone, we need to first understand your unique needs, challenges, and dreams. This assessment will help us fine-tune our initiatives, align our resources, and advocate for the right causes. It’s all about ensuring that OFC continues to be a place where mutual aid, radical generosity, and intersectional support thrive.
