We're so inspired to see over *650* mutual aid networks now listed on http://mutualaidhub.org .

Want to learn more about mutual aid organizing? Here are a few of the great resources we've found so far... (thread)

If there's a better, more comprehensive set of guides and resources than the expertly curated "Database of Localized Resources During Corona Outbreak" google sheet, we haven't seen one.

One of the clearest guides to mutual aid organizing and neighborhood pod mapping was this "Mutual Aid 101" put together by @AOC and organizer Mariame Kaba (with art by @BeccaB_Rad). #WeGotOurBlock

Another excellent set of resources and guides is the widely-read "Collective Care is Our Best Weapon Against COVID-19" site: https://mutualaiddisasterrelief.org/collective-care/

Perhaps no single mutual aid group has had as much influence on the nationwide movement as Mutual Aid Medford and Somerville (MAMAS).

See their terrific "Neighborhood Pod How-To" guide here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j8ADhLEuKNDZ1a_opmzudywJPKMXcNKu01V1xY2MiIA/preview

There is of course no issue more important than volunteer and aid recipient safety. In this enormously challenging environment, this guide on Mutual Aid Safety Practices is invaluable: https://mutualaiddisasterrelief.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/COVID-SupplyDistro-MASafetyPracticesZine-WEB.pdf

Privacy and personal data security are also vitally important, particularly when so much volunteerism right now is online and remote.

Check out this excellent article from @EFF: "Keeping Each Other Safe When Virtually Organizing Mutual Aid"

Thinking of moving your mutual aid landing page off of google docs? The mutual aid group in Arlington MA put together a comprehensive guide on creating a website, getting a domain, and lots more: https://mutualaidarlington.org/setup/#domain-name-forwarding---improve-your-web-address

And if you thought that poster at the beginning of the thread was cool, it's the work of the amazing @nicoleMcomix who's made her template free and available to mutual organizers everywhere.
