Gender equality includes creating communities where people of all gender identities feel welcomed, respected, and able to participate fully.

Through a Gender Equity Grant, Folk on the Rocks is delivering the Performing Arts and Q***r Justice Youth Camp, providing an entry-level space for q***r youth to explore writing and music in a supportive environment. The program helps participants build confidence, develop skills, and create connections with peers and mentors.

When people feel they belong, they are better positioned to contribute their talents, pursue new opportunities, and participate fully in community life.
