Compassionate Las Vegas
Civic and Social Organizations
We aim to make Las Vegas a more compassionate place to live, work, and play by promoting compassionate practices.
About us
Compassionate Las Vegas is a grassroots organization whose mission is to foster the Charter for Compassion and the movement of compassion in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. Compassion acts as our guiding principle. Nearly all moral and religious institutions suggest a version of the Golden Rule that we should "do to others as you would have them do to you", and yet we are a world divided. We believe the need for more compassion is the most pressing issue of our time. There is data to support that love and compassion are not luxuries but a necessities for human survival. We are here to host and inspire a network of compassionate businesses, government institutions, schools, groups and individuals so that Las Vegas may be a more compassionate place to live, work and play. We are part of a network of 440 Compassionate Cities in 56 countries and growing daily. Mayor Carolyn Goodman affirmed the Charter on behalf of the City of Las Vegas in 2013. Compassionate Las Vegas is made possible by the Jameson Foundation in partnership with the Moonridge Group. Compassionate Las Vegas is new and growing! We are looking for partners from all sectors. If you're interested, please email us at hello@compassionatelv.org

A year ago, following the tragic shooting at UNLV, Code Switch Restorative Justice for Girls held a community circle to address the trauma experienced by students and the broader Las Vegas community. Local organizations, healers, and therapists came together to provide resources like food, therapy sessions, and massages, creating a safe space to discuss trauma and offer coping tools. We must not accept the normalization of school shootings in our community. This year, they are expanding the circle to include grief and loss—whether from the passing of a loved one, a relationship, a job, or housing. This circle is inspired by personal losses, including a brother to gun violence and a son to a preventable health condition. Their goal is to offer a space for sharing, grieving, and healing. The circle will take place on December 20th from 5-9pm, a time when many face seasonal depression. As we close the year, we invite you to lean into community and take steps toward healing and growth. We hope you can join us. RSVP through their website or Instagram page.

Respect the earth. ~ Nature has the power to recenter us and put life into perspective. ~ Small changes can create a big difference for our planet. ~ Hope is where we must look. ~ Get outside and enjoy what’s around you, observe nature. ~ We are all interconnected, connect to the life force on our planet. ~ Slow down, simplify. We’re excited to share the following resources provided by our insightful panelists to help foster climate action and environmental sustainability.
