IN THE COMMUNITY:
Because we recognize the critical importance of being grounded within our constituent communities, we participate in community events, activities and discussions on a variety of topics and issues. We assist in creating sites for community based on shared values of respect, personal agency, accountability, safety and celebration. Whether we're at a drag king show or a city council meeting, we weave education about domestic violence, support services, anti-oppression, and safety planning through all our interactions. We have materials in multiple formats and distribute information from as many and as varied locations as possible.
Our current and upcoming events are as follows:
