Built by Sharlene Fermin. Held by community.

Divine Rising NYC is built by Sharlene Fermin — @cafeandcrayons — who has been a pillar in her community: working in schools, increasing parent engagement, hosting parenting classes, and working in perinatal and early childhood mental health and Early Intervention services in NYC.

Sharlene wanted to create a safe space for conversation and connection. A mom of an autistic child, navigating and learning. As much as she may have learned in a professional setting, it's incomparable to living the life as a parent and caregiver.

Here, we will go deep and connect.

As lonely as the journey feels... we are not alone.
