ROAR
ROAR is our grassroots volunteer crew, built on showing up for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC organizing, people and events. With rainbow umbrellas, bubbles and a whole lot of joy, we help keep queer and trans spaces safe, welcoming and focused on the community that came together.
Gender-Affirming Care Advocacy
This work is focused on Baystate Medical Center, advocating for trans and non-binary youth by exposing the injustice of Baystate’s decision to end gender-affirming care for youth, and moving the community and other systems of accountability to act to put pressure on Baystate to reinstate care.
