Jasamine has been doing her best to recover from her extreme burnout since being fired in 2022 illegally and unjustly after attempting to advocate for herself, other staff of color, and her right to rest. She has spent the last four years improving her circumstances, health, and wellbeing to get back on her feet so that she can speak out against the injustices that happened to her. With your support, Jasamine will be able to take time to rest long enough to complete her stress cycle and finally take legal action for her firing as well as the multiple physical accidents in the city of Evanston which cause her long-lasting disability since 2021 and 2023, before and after being fired. Since she left the workforce in 2023 to recover from a sledding accident which left her with persistent nerve pain and damage, as well as arthritis and a bulging disk in her spine, Jasamine has been tirelessly working to establish a foundation for her consulting business, church and temple of worship, and social emotional learning school. Despite her immense progress on her werk projects, Jasamine navigates poverty everyday trying to strategize the exact right combination of steps and choices that can ensure she does not lose her SNAP or Medicare benefits if she receives any type of financial compensation that could be seen as income above $2400 and $1800 for SNAP and Medicare, respectively. (Donations Through the Children of Mine would not count as such.) While normally Jasamine would be able to navigate this circuitous set of social welfare and safety net systems, her immense burnout has prevented her from being able to pursue the kind of support she otherwise would have. Compounding this, Jasamine has suffered from multiple miscarriages which have affected her capacity to process information and language in the ways that she used to. In this way, Jasamine has become disabled from working, and still has not yet rested enough from any one of her injuries, let alone the totality of them and the stress they put on her mind, spirit, and body. What would help Jasamine most at this time is enough financial resources to take a rest for long enough that she can truly recover. Please donate to help her get enough financial stability to escape poverty for more than one month so that she can finally have the time to rest and recover. Jasamine is an accomplished professional of more than 22 years. Because of the immense pressures of the structure of our society, she has been struggling to find support and resources in a world that does not see her high-functioning capacities as true indicators of her challenges and barriers. Since being dismissed without explanation in 2022 (after having been nominated in 2021to be the Chicago Non-Profit Young Professional of the Year), Jasamine has been suffering from one significant life event and emergency after another, all of which compounded the pain and grief that she had been struggling with since her mother died shortly after she moved back to Chicago in 2018. She has been struggling with an experience of erosion of her capacity to speak and emotional burnout since she was a teenager. The only person in her life to ever help her manage her anxiety aside from her cats was her mother. Now, she is struggling to mitigate the impacts of her disabilities through writing projects and initiatives that do not require an immense amount of social interaction. This form of masking still does not allow her the rest that she needs to concentrate on healing the pains and injuries in her body. With your financial support, Jasamine will be able to finally calm her survival responses long enough to finish the meaningful werk of her church, consulting firm, and social emotional learning school, all initiatives which provide Jasaminemore sustainable work that helps her offer her services, insights, and supports to communities and individuals for free and on a mutual aid basis.
