What's important for us...

At XR Southwest Connecticut, we believe the path forward must be rooted in truth, justice, and regeneration.


What’s important to us isn’t just fighting climate collapse—it’s how we fight it. We prioritize relationships, mutual care, and radical honesty in everything we do.

  • We believe truth is a form of resistance. Telling the full story of climate injustice—including who profits and who suffers—is the first step to healing and action.
  • We believe no one is disposable. We build systems that protect the most vulnerable—our elders, our youth, the land, and each other.
  • We believe regenerative culture is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. Burnout is not a badge of honor. We nourish our movement with rest, art, joy, and solidarity.
  • We believe real change begins locally, and that resisting authoritarianism and ecological destruction starts with showing up—for our neighbors, for the truth, and for the future.


This is a movement of both grief and imagination. We hold the pain of what’s being lost and the hope of what can still be built. Together.
