Missouri and Kansas showed up!
This was the first resource fair in our region led by a Black trans woman-led organization, and it mattered.

Over 30 organizations, real resources, and community moving together across Kansas and Missouri. Not just an event, but a response to what our people are facing and a reminder of what we can build together.

Thank you to everyone who pulled up, tabled, volunteered, and supported. Thank you to our partners for showing up with care.

This is just the start.
