What we do and how to join us:
Founded in 2015, Liberatus began as a creative outlet for professionals in American politics to write about healing, and our writers represent the entire political spectrum. You can find 122 digital journal entries in our archives at LiberatusDC.org.
Over the last five years the Liberatus team has compiled our first graphic editorial for print, a 200+ page volume filled with stories that elevate the human experience and blend congressional-level research with contemplative spirituality, beautiful photography, and good design.

We chose the Refuge theme because when we see ourselves in the stories of the displaced, we begin to understand nuance and paradox which is essential for wise governance.
