Community Engagement in the Midwest: Challenges, Resources, & Relationship Building

Thursday, January 18, 2024, Caucus Session 2, 5:00-6:15pm EST

The caucus is intended for people doing community engagement work in the Midwest. I represent PRIDEnet at Stanford University and I live and operate in the Midwest to enhance LGBTQIA+ community engagement in this region. While I work with LGBTQIA+ communities, this caucus is open to all people doing engagement work with all communities negatively impacted by white supremacy, heteronormativity, ableism, classism, misogyny, and antisemitism. I have developed partnerships with people and organizations in Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Ohio. I'd love to share what I have learned as well as learn from others and build connections and relationships that can strengthen all organizing for social justice in the Midwest.
