Our struggles are interconnected, and there is no better time to recognize that than during PRIDE MONTH❗❗

"If you didn’t know, the term “Asian American” was actually coined as a way for us to unite and to push for political and social reformation together. Taking inspiration from the Civil Rights Movement led by Black activists, in 1968 students of different Asian ethnicities unified under the term “Asian American” and joined the Third World Liberation Front (TWLF), a coalition of ethnic student groups, to fight for more diverse education at San Francisco State University. 🤝

That said, our history is intrinsically weaved together, our diasporic identities interconnected through our individual and collective struggles for liberation." -

Join us and Project Connect for our Zine Making Workshop on Sunday, June 23rd, at Prospect Park at this event where we can honor our shared histories, make art, and learn about one another.

⏰ When: Sunday, June 23 from 3PM-6PM
📍 Where: Prospect Park (Meet @ Sled Hill)

We will be supplying zine materials, snackies, and letter writing supplies. ✉✏

April 22nd-April 28th is Le***an Visibility Week!

Le***ans were (and are) our caretakers, our doctors, our street medics, our protest marshals, and more. But we can't ignore the impact HIV/AIDS has on le***an communities, either. In 1991, 40% of HIV-positive patients were women, and 12% were diagnosed with AIDS.

We will continue to uplift and advocate for our le***an siblings, and show up for them as they've shown up for us!

The HEAT Program is a nonprofit clinic servicing youth ages 13-29. If you're interested in our services, check out our pinned posts, and to book an appointment with us call (718) 613-8543!

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
Navigating healthcare can be tricky and difficult, especially for those of us in the LGBTQ+ community. These are just small things that are important to remember when you’re getting care. You deserve to be heard!

If you’ve experienced discrimination, you can:
- Document. keep any files, e-mails, names, contact information of those involved in your care and dates/times of events.
- Report harassment (if you feel comfortable and safe doing so) to your medical office’s supervisor.
- Ask for help. If you aren’t sure how to move forward or where to go, there are organizations out there that can help you along the way. They’re listed om the last slide!

TAKE A BINDER BREAK 👏
Dysphoria can be very hard-hitting, which is why during binder breaks, it can help to wear baggy t-shirts or sweaters. It can be hard to take longer binder breaks, but they’re needed and can reduce your risk of pain later on. Your body needs rest!!! Pace and take care of yourself. 🩷

O’Shae, a vibrant and poignant member of our community, was tragically murdered for voguing in front of a gas station in Brooklyn.

There is a memorial ball occurring tonight at 6PM on Coney Island to commemorate and honor O’Shae Sibley’s life. Rest in power, O’Shae. Your memory will not be forgotten, and we are thinking of you always in the work we do.

(If you’re out protesting this week, be sure to mask up, carry first-aid kits, and travel in groups. We keep each other safe!)
