Larissa’s relationship with Camp Dragonfly began as a parent of kiddos who fell in love with camp after their first summer. Since then, her entire family (bio, intergenerational, and chosen) has blossomed through interactions with Dragonfly events and community.

Larissa is currently completing a Bachelor of Arts in psychology and gender studies, focusing their work on the experiences of Autistic and Q***r folks. When she’s looking to relax Larissa likes to throw herself down mountains on a bike or get lost in their garden.

IDAHBT Stands for International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. On 17 May, communities around the world will make themselves visible, including in countries where doing so carries legal risk. LGBTQIA+ people have always been at the heart of movements for justice and freedom.

Here at Camp Dragonfly our mission is to bring trans and gender creative children together for creativity, connection, and celebration. By hosting a summer camp that encourages self-exploration and affirmation, we embrace children of all identities and experiences.

We will still be running the same old Camp Dragonfly! Just with a bit of an update! DUF or Dragonflies Unite Foundation is the name of the non profit organization that will be hosting Camp Dragonfly along with other events.
