We are all one

We recognize the struggles of immigrants because many, though not all, of us have experienced immigration, arriving in this country ourselves or our ancestors arriving before us. We also stand in solidarity with members of the LGBTQ+ community who experience discrimination and hardship.

To offer support, we warmly invite you to review the information and links we provided.


Organizations we support

Learn how VOLAR has evolved and where it is going — and how you can be a part of this incredible initiative.

Mindfulness is being here now, with kindness and open hearted curiosity.

The Opening Heart Mindfulness Community is open to everyone and meets to practice sitting and walking meditation and discuss mindfulness-related topics every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at Circle Yoga. We practice together in the tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.
