We are all Human here
We are a feminist & trauma-informed mental health community of caring and creative therapists.
Located in Mohkínstsis / Calgary, Alberta.
What is Being Human Club?
Just like humans, Being Human Club is composed of many parts. BHC is a safe and inclusive space. BHC is social justice. BHC is weird. BHC is therapeutic. BHC is Queer. BHC is advocacy. BHC is trauma-informed. BHC is a resource centre. BHC is punk. BHC is a start up. BHC is feminist. BHC is community. BHC is creative. BHC is messy and imperfect.
BHC is a place to reclaim the art of being human.
