Compassionate USA

Compassionate USA is a learning journey designed to teach self-compassion and community well-being that honors common humanity and affirms the beauty of our differences. As a project it seeks to help people develop foundational skill sets, a shared vocabulary, and common practice for all people to ultimately decrease violence and trauma and increase individual and collective healing. Announced in January 2023 and launched at the US Conference of Mayor’s Meeting in June 2023, Compassionate USA is an opportunity to address our common humanity as a Nation and to provide tools to bring about compassion in action across the country. Compassionate USA is a learning experience that includes videos, activities, resources, and a toolkit. It is offered in six parts: compassionate systems, collective trauma and collective healing, common humanity, compassion for others, emotional awareness, and self-compassion.
