Mutual Aid in Santa Cruz & South County (Watsonville etc)

Note from the SubRosa collective:  Our priority is the health and safety of our communities. We are closely monitoring the ever-evolving coronavirus COVID-19 situation and are thinking about ways we can maintain our collective 
and community health and provide mutual aid.  
As of Saturday, March 14th, SubRosa (and other Hub projects) will be canceling 
all gatherings and events until further notice. 
The collective is exploring ways it can support its members and communities through 
mutual aid and support of community-based response efforts.

An on-going Google doc for a "Corona Virus Resource Kit" - FYI there is a lot of info, I'd recommend searching for a specific topic if you already know it, rather than scanning it.

SubRosa is a collectively run anarchist community space, a place to meet others and challenge our assumptions and act on our passions. We strive to create a vibrant environment for events, classes, meetings, organizing, performance, art, studying and more. SubRosa also offers radical literature for sale, and houses the Anarchist Lending Library. We welcome folks to join us in fostering an environment free from coercion, sexism, queer&homophobia, racism, ableism and other hierarchies.


SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center, in downtown Santa Cruz, CA which is the unceded territory of the Awaswas-speaking Uypi Tribe. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.

Comments on the SubRosa website are fully moderated. As a collective, we agreed that the purpose of the website was to promote SubRosa, not to provide an online place for lively and invigorating debate. We hope that the space itself is where conversations on the nature of anarchism and local projects will take place. That said, we occasionally approve comments that are informative or reflect a viewpoint we feel it is important for website visitors to read.
