mutual aid directory

This is a directory for mutual aid groups in the Ypsilanti area. If you are involved with a group or organization you would like added to the directory, send a message with the group name, a brief description, and a link, and it will be added shortly.

The directory will also be re-sent when new members join, as currently Signal does not allow sharing message history with new members.
