Joy is our North Star for culturally competent programming.
It is how we are creating conversations around mental health and wellbeing.
It is how we are facilitating community connections and empowerment.
It is how we are improving access to nature and engagement on climate and conservation.
It is how we are elevating the voices of our young people and serving the needs of our elders.
It is how we are acknowledging the identities and experiences missing from conventional LGBTQ+ discussions, organizations, and work of creating change.
It is why we are encouraging our community to take this weekend to participate, but also to just simply rest.
Joy is how we are getting through a world aligned against us, imagining and worldbuilding toward something new.
