Join Compassion in Crisis authors Kate Weiner and Kailea Loften for the launch of their book at Point Reyes Books. This event is presented in partnership with the Mesa Refuge, and Annie Dobbs-Kramer will join in conversation.

“As we enter an era of climate shifts and more frequent, layered catastrophes, this is the book you want beside you to navigate the realities of disaster and recovery. Drawing from survivors, practitioners, and thinkers, this book offers a guide to cultivating the kind of attentiveness and care that might help us think about preparedness wholistically, from philosophical ideas about how our experiences of time shift to practical and profound advice that can move the needle towards justice in the aftermath of grief and loss.” —Candis Callison, Member, Tāłtān Nation, and author, How Climate Change Comes to Matter: The Communal Life of Facts
