Compassionate care is a skill—and a practice.
Join NEST Harm Reduction for a 2-hour virtual training designed to prepare teams and community members to support others in high-intensity festival environments.
This session is part of our preparation for Lightning in a Bottle, and is open to both official event teams and the wider public.
What We’ll Cover
Harm reduction fundamentals in festival settings
Trauma-informed care in dynamic, unpredictable environments
How to offer non-directive, compassionate support
Navigating altered states and emotional overwhelm
Real-world insights from Sanctuary work at NEST
This training is grounded, practical, and rooted in relational awareness—not scripts or protocols.
