Don’t Clock Out is a peer support community created out of a dire need for acknowledging and addressing the moral toll of caring for people within systems of harm.
we accompany healthcare workers in navigating deeply human work.
Our community offers free virtual peer support groups led by healthcare workers.
We engage in public advocacy through ethical storytelling and moral distress education.
Our work functions as a safety net solution, holding the complexity of suicide and building networks of care.
If our peer support groups have been helpful to you or someone you know we invite you to donate and help spread the word. While participation is always free, we ensure our healthcare peer support facilitators are paid for their time and support.Consider donating to keep our work sustainable.
Watch the trailer for “Don’t Clock Out: A short film”…
At the center of the design are two healthcare workers in conversation.
Surrounding them, the heart and brain symbolizing emotional and intellectual connection, each person feeling seen and understood on multiple levels.
Branches extend from the heart and neurons from the brain, meeting in the middle to represent how, through shared human experiences, we can connect, support one another, empathize, and grow together.
We hope that this design brings awareness and understanding about our realities as healthcare workers navigating moral distress and deeply human work.
