Join us for the first ever Queer Transgender Asian Pacific Islander (QTAPI) Week, May 22-29!
May is AAPI month and June is Pride month. It is time that we have at least one week in the year to celebrate the contributions and accomplishments of the QTAPI community in the Bay Area. After several decades of organizing, we are proud to bring light and love to these dark times. Over the week, expect online and in-person events that will hopefully inspire you into action.
