🌈 This season, we celebrate familia: the one we grew up with, the one we’ve created, and the family that found us exactly when we needed it.

💕 For LGBTQ+ Latinx folks across the U.S., many far from where we started, community becomes our home. At Somos Seattle, we uplift each other with compassion, authenticity, and pride.

💫 Whether it’s a friend who checks in, a coworker who understands, a group chat that keeps us laughing, or a community that holds space for us, we honor the love that keeps us grounded.

✨ Here’s to our chosen familia.
