New Seneca Village Grants
A Collective Practice
New Seneca Village is an intentional community and offering. Our intention is to live into the spirit of an interconnected, thriving and abundant Village centered on restoration, connection and visioning.
​
​We offer the travel grant and back-home grants below to ensure that all Healers,
regardless of means, are able to be a part of our community.
We also want to support our collective ability to claim space from our day-to-day
concerns and responsibilities so that while we are gathering in person we can focus on being
present to our individual and collective rhythms and needs.
In that spirit, if accepting the Travel and Back-home grant will make a difference for you,
please request the amount you need.
If accepting the Travel and Back Home grants would have little impact on your ability to participate
in the in-persona gathering element of our restorative residency experience, please leave all,
or a portion of funds for others for whom this offering will have greater impact.
We have included an offering on how you may want to consider your grant request at the bottom of this page.
We will not means test your request against your salary in granting these funds.
​
We look forward to co-creating this conscious abundance community practice with you.
​
These grants are to support your presence at the in-person residency gathering only.
