The Gender Equity Summit is a gathering of women, girls, and people who identify as nonbinary, transgender, or genderqueer. The goal is to create connections and partnerships, build leadership skills and opportunities, create opportunities for self-care and healing, and build collective power to make social change. The Summit will include an art show and music that showcases local talent and provides spaces to be creative. We will center black, indigenous, and people of color in all aspects of the summit.
We are intentionally creating an intersectional safe space for liberation, social action, healing, and joy.
