Kitsap Community Mutual Aid During COVID-19
This is an intake form to help community members ask other community members for support in Kitsap during the COVID-19 pandemic.  
.
.
HOW TO ASK, HOW THIS WORKS:  

Fill out the form below.

Your information will go into a Google document that will be shared publicly so that community members can offer assistance. Therefore, you are not asked here to share your specific location, just your contact information.  

Community members who read the document and think they can assist will then be able to contact you.  From there, you decide whether you want to take their assistance.  You are under no obligation to the person who contacts you in any way, and you are welcome to refuse or put conditions on their assistance.

WHAT IS "MUTUAL AID"?
This 8-minute video by Dean Spade and Ciro Carrillo explains mutual aid, including examples of mutual aid efforts:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PopmGAvsggg  (HEADS UP:  The title of the video is "Sh*t's Totally F*cked:  What Can We Do?"  The video itself isn't full of curse words, but the words in the title are spoken aloud at the beginning and a couple times during the video, just so you know.)

Mutual Aid projects:
*** are collective and collaborative
*** bring a *built-in* understanding of community and culture to the way we identify and dismantle harmful systems and to the way we ground each other in empowerment, solidarity, and witnessing
*** draw power/perspective from being horizontalist and inclusive
*** center engagement, practice, and skills-development
*** challenge disposability
*** are active

THIS IS A FIRST ATTEMPT.  WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!
One person (Airen Lydick) set up this intake form and Google document, but this mutual aid effort will be run collaboratively by all who participate.  We are here together on the lands of the Suquamish, S'Klallam, and other Coast Salish people.  When we participate in this effort, we are collectively assuming the responsibility of making this work.  If there is a way you can add to the functionality, inclusiveness, and accessibility of this mutual aid form, please email contactairen@gmail.com.  (For example, maybe you can help with translating this document into Spanish or other languages!)
