The JourneyWomxn Fund: Caregivers Program Retreats (CPR)

Retreats open to BIPOC womxn who are New Jersey residents, and identify as female. 

Applicants live in the world as caregivers and creative practitioners, reinforcing the program’s mission to support those who nurture others through their work and artistry. We are especially interested in womxn engaged in Newark’s urban food-growing and sustainability community.
