Show up with care, humility, and commitment.

Our work is rooted in community — and sustained by the people who choose to show up. Whether you're curious about circle practice, seeking support in your community, or already walking a similar path, we'd love to be in relationship.

Join a circle, or start one

If you're looking for a circle — or hoping to seed one in your community — we welcome your inquiry. Whether you've been impacted by harm, are seeking healing in relationship, or want support with a community dialogue, we'll do our best to connect you with upcoming opportunities or help you explore what might be possible in your context.

For circles in Central Virginia or online, start with a welcome call at insearchofpeace.one.

Become a keeper

We're always looking to connect with potential circle keepers — especially those grounded in abolitionist values, relational skill, and embodied presence.

Keepers may be survivors, healers, organizers, facilitators, clinicians, or community members with lived experience and deep care. We offer training, mentorship, stipends, and community among keepers doing this work across the South and beyond.

If you feel called to hold this kind of space, let's talk.

Collaborate or learn with us

We welcome conversation with aligned groups, practitioners, and community organizations — especially those already building non-carceral responses to harm. If you're holding similar work or want to start, we're open to collaboration, listening circles, shared learning, and mutual support.

Email is not an encrypted form of communication. Share only as much as you'd like for now; we can move to a more private channel from there.

Or support it

Not everyone joins a circle. Some people make them possible.
