Start a Pod

We want you to start a pod! A pod is any small group of people who meet regularly for a purpose. That purpose could be anything. Be it mutual aid, education, activism, emotional support, deep community building, learning something together, sustainability, environmental repair, or any other purpose, we want to help you get started.

We outline a simple spiral of actions to get started.

Envision the pod’s purpose -> Invite people -> Set your schedule and norms -> Do your things together -> Connect with our community -> Reflect and keep it going!

You can learn more in our getting started guide.

Please fill out our Start a Pod form below if you’d like our help connecting you with people with whom to start a pod.


Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
