Commitment to Social Justice
We understand and continue to educate ourselves on the cultural, societal, political, and systemic factors which have historically impacted marginalized communities including

bisexual, trans, queer, intersex, asexual (LGBTQIA+) persons; immigrants;
and other oppressed groups of people.
We see you. We stand with you.
