Earth Month | April 2022

Welcome to Saint Mary's first-ever Digital Earth Month. We offer this space as a means to facilitate community and dialogue around our new Earth Day theme -- Cultivating a Community of Care: Self-Care, Care for Our Community, Care for the Marginalized, & Care for Our Common Home. If you would like to connect and share, we welcome you to join us.

As we grapple with the challenges of social distancing and isolation, it is more important than ever to carve out moments for self-care and connection. Rather than cancel Earth Month, we have decided to try our best to honor this historic event online with any and all that would like to join us. Our intention is to create a space to come together to see familiar faces, share ideas and show respect for each other and our Earth.

The most important thing we can do right now is take care of ourselves, our family and stay well (mentally and physically) during these uncertain times.

Everyone manages stress in different ways.

If self-care for you involves unplugging, going for a walk and taking time for yourself, please take care of yourself in these ways.

If connection with your SMC community and a bit of inspiration are what you are craving right now to get you through these times, we have offered some spaces, below, to connect, engage and share.
