2017-2018 Windcall Residency Program
"Sabbaticals for organizers on the frontlines of change" If you're an organizer, you know it takes courage, commitment and risk. We honor you and invite you apply to the Windcall Residency Program to boost your creativity, health and resilience to make systemic change.

At Windcall there is no schedule, no demands. At Windcall, you'll be in a cohort with other organizers - mostly people of color and women - with time, space, and suggested practices to allow new ideas and ways of being to arise, reflect on and release the effects of oppression, and transform your sense of purpose. Applications due April 24. [Read more.]
