Initiatives Overview

Sick Futures Collective is building a national, crip-led space where sick and disabled people share resources, practice mutual aid, and organize collective care beyond harmful systems.

We believe stories, art, and creative expression are essential tools for connection, survival, and systems change. Through creative projects, our podcast, and community workshops, we create spaces where sick and disabled people are reflected, valued, and supported in imagining freer futures.

Our creative work and disability justice policy observatory operate together to challenge ableist systems and uplift the lived knowledge of our communities, growing toward regenerative futures shaped by access, creativity, and care.
