The Stay or Go Workbook is appropriate for all ages, though geared toward people over the age of 18 and able to make their own legal decisions. It’s derived from our specific political and social commitments to feminism, LGBTQ+ liberation, and racial, and economic justice rooted in the USA contexts we were raised in. We think the prompts will be useful for anyone who gives a shit about being kind to other people, even if you're not upset or worried about the same things we are.
