The Activist Support Circle is an emotional support group for progressive activists that began in February 2005\. The circle will hold its second-anniversary gathering to guard against activist-related burnout; share activist-related frustrations and fears, as well as hopes and aspirations, in a supportive, safe environment; turn feelings of despair into feelings of empowerment; and learn helpful coping skills and ideas from other like-minded supportive activists.

John Johnson, editor of the monthly progressive event calendar Change Links, will be the special guest speaker at the free-to-the-public anniversary gathering. The Activist Support Circle will publicly celebrate its second anniversary on Wednesday, Feb. 28, beginning 7 p.m. at the Friends Meeting Hall, 1440 Harvard St.

The gatherings are free and there is free parking on-site. The Web site is: www.activistsupport-circle.org. For further information, call the Activist Support Circle at (310) 399-1000.
