Resources
Do you have a link to rad resources for sickos? A personal tip you use when trying to extract the right medications out of a gatekeeping doctor, a zine that has helped you feel less alone, a guide to navigating inaccessible spaces that you want to share with crip comrades? We want to co-create this list with all of you! Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed already.
Please email us so we can continue to build our resources page together: sickcomrade@proton.me
