This space is up one flight of stairs with no elevator access (we are looking into other locations!).
We will also be sitting on the floor at the start and during reflection time. If this will be a challenge for you, we welcome you to bring your own foldable portable chair, though please be mindful that we may require it to be placed downstairs during a portion of the activities to allow for more space.
Parking: We’re doing this in an industrial area with only street parking available. While there is likely enough street parking for everyone, be mindful that you may need to walk a block or two from where you park depending on attendance numbers and time of arrival. Please be mindful of arriving in enough time to find parking, walk to the entrance, and get situated in the space before doors close!
Location:
This workshop will be held in an industrial area located in San Jose 95110 within the intersections of Coleman Ave, W Hedding St, W Taylor St, and The Alameda.
You will receive the exact location after your payment is processed.
Scholarship Program:
We believe in making our services as accessible as possible. Through our pay-it-forward scholarship program, we set aside a portion of our workshop proceeds to support attendees who might not otherwise be able to join us. We also reserve a number of pay-what-you-can spots for therapy clients, based on how many full-fee clients we’re currently serving, and this fund helps extend that same support in these contexts.
We warmly welcome donations from anyone who’d like to contribute and help grow this fund, expanding access and opportunities for others in our community. If you wish to contribute, you’ll find donation options included in the payment link for this workshop below.
If you’d like to utilize our scholarship program to attend this workshop, please contact our center directly.
