EndoTruths: Infertility and Mental Health
Directed by Casey Berna, USA, 2015, 38m
Endometriosis and Infertility each can be devastating in their own right. But, experiencing both at once, often leaves patients to suffer for years through misdiagnosis and mistreatment from the medical community. In EndoTruths, licensed Patient Counselor and Advocate, Casey Berna, profiles endometriosis patients who share their experiences with the disease. The film will be followed by a panel discussion with an informed and committed team of Endometriosis activists.

Red Tent Market Place
The Red Tent is traditionally a sacred place for women to gather and be supported by each other, as they experience menses and childbirth. Our Red Tent Marketplace will honor the essence of the Red Tent, by creating a celebratory community event that will explore the wondrous world of menstruation. All are invited and encouraged to peruse the marketplace and interact with vendors, educators, healing practitioners, and organizations, who will offer information about menstrual-related products, practices, and services.
