About the course

Planning With Purpose (POP) is a human-centered planning framework designed for organizers, creators, and teams who want to take action without causing harm along the way. This training helps participants move away from panic building unnecessary projects by slowing down before building; Long enough to clarify purpose, define outcomes that matter, and choose processes that don’t rely on burnout or unspoken sacrifice.  Instead of rushing into savior style action, this POP training asks the grounding questions many projects skip: who this work is for, who is most impacted by our work, and how this work can be done in ways that are both sustainable and equitable. POP is especially valuable for people organizing under pressure, including 2TIGE communities, disabled and traumatized folks, and anyone juggling limited time, energy, or resources. It replaces urgency with intention to help teams align before committing to work that  affects real people’s lives. This program doesn’t slow change. It makes change survivable.
