microlearnings
At SAFE Illinois, we believe informed communities are empowered communities. Our Microlearnings are short, accessible educational tools designed to break down complex public health and policy issues into clear, actionable insights. Whether you’re a concerned resident, an advocate, or a policymaker, these quick lessons connect the dots between lived experience, evidence-based solutions, and bold legislative action.
Rooted in harm reduction and public health justice, each Microlearning is crafted to spark understanding, inspire action, and support a shared vision of health, safety, and dignity for all Illinoisans. These bite-sized resources are perfect for learning on the go, grounding organizing efforts, or deepening your knowledge of the real issues shaping our state.
Because when lives are on the line, education shouldn’t be a barrier. It should be a bridge.

Note from Margit: In this session, I offer guided practices/reflection to care for your body, mind and spirit to honor your election grief and help you find a healthy pathway for sustained civil courage. This program is not an analysis of the election results, nor does it address action steps going forward. This is an offering of support for your nervous system to reorient you to activism emerging from love.
