Every person who does 2SLGBTQIA+ Affirming work in their community is a leader, whether you're a volunteer, staff member, ally or queer-identified. However, we often have full plates and limited resources, making it challenging to stay informed on emerging issues.
Affirming Leaders Day is here to equip you to do the sacred and essential work you’re made for and that the world needs! You’ll find the training, resources, and encouragement you need to thrive.
Sharpen your tools.
Encourage your spirit.
Empower your community.
The first 10 registrants will receive a free copy of"Shame-Sex Attraction: Survivors’ Stories of Conversion Therapy", the latest book by one of our featured speakers, Lucas Wilson! We will email the first 10 registrants to get your mailing address and the book will be mailed by November 1.
We want everyone to be able to join us, regardless of financial circumstances. If cost is a barrier to your attendance, please contact us at miranda@affirmingconnections.com and we will make sure you are taken care of.
