Go Deeper After the Storm: A Community, Land and Healing Retreat

July 19 @ 9:30 am - 2:00 pm

Come join us for a day of reflection, healing, and community connection at our Go Deeper: After the Storm retreat. This in-person event will take place at Mission: St Louis, where we will gather to support each other through the process of healing and growth while focusing on the importance of trees, tree trauma, and ancestral trauma in environmental contexts. Together, we will work towards creating a new narrative that supports healing, strengthening our connection with both our communities and the environment while exploring ways to navigate life’s challenges and emerge stronger on the other side. Come engage, learn, and collaborate in a space that values your voice and experience in a day filled with connection, healing, and transformation. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of meaningful change! Lunch is provided.

Jess Underwood
Finance & Operations Director

After 17 years in the non-profit and public sector, Jess remains committed to mission-driven work that tackles the challenges facing our communities. Their career began with a year of service as an Americorps St. Louis Emergency Response team member, responding to natural disasters and performing conservation projects. That foundation of service led to roles supporting the arts, affordable housing, mental health, and grassroots housing advocacy in St. Louis. During this journey Jess has worked to center the value “nothing about us, without us.” They do their best to ensure that the voices of people who have been marginalized guide the strategy and execution of work that honors their lived experiences. When they aren’t working, Jess is out paddling, hiking, working in their garden, or building something.
