Beyond The Rhetoric: Embracing Our Queer Community

Today, we stand in a moment where public conversation is often driven by soundbites and division. Our purpose here is to move with intention and to create a space in which all feel heard and valued. This is not a space for rhetoric, but a place for facts, curiosity, and informed understanding. 

We have gathered experts, advocates, and community members who will present not just their perspectives, but information rooted in evidence. You will hear personal stories that illustrate human experiences, not just statistics, and learn from research that provides clarity, not just talking points. We ask that you listen with an open mind and a commitment to genuine learning. Together, we can build a broader, deeper understanding of the LGBTQIA+ community that is grounded in both reality and respect. 

Please register for the conference online.

Please note: There will be no walk-in registration for this event.  Every participant must be registered in advance to participate and photo ID will be required.  We look forward to learning and creating a space of mutual understanding.
