Financial Support

Our mission is to make all of our programs accessible. Every fee-based offering has a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots available to support self-identified people of color, members of marginalized groups (queer people, transgender people, and  people with disabilities) and those in financial need (those for whom the cost to attend is not financially possible). 

These spots are offered on a first come, first served basis. Please pay at the highest level you can afford. In order for this support to be available, we rely on those who can afford to pay the full price to do so.

This workshop is an introduction to a 3-Day training retreat on April 9th-11th and  will focus on the dynamic experiential learning featuring aspects of the New York Zen Center for Contemplative Care’s Foundations in Contemplative Care Training Program.
