Once upon a time we got a sign

For many many years we’ve strived to be an inclusive practice. This doesn’t only mean welcoming people of all races, religions and gender identities. It also means being a healing presence for those who don’t share our politics. This is still true. But,I made the decision to put a @joebiden poster in our windows this year. Why? Because I love American democracy. I also love peace. Because I never imagined I’d fear for the integrity of this. If you’d like a poster for your window, I have a whole stack to share. I was raised in the 60’s; a time of similar unrest. I can’t March- I’m committed to my safety and the safety of my patients. But I can vote. And I hope you will too.
