We’re thrilled to team up with NorCal Public Media—one of the Bay Area’s most trusted independent news sources—to share powerful stories from our LGBTQ Programs. This exciting five-part video series will spotlight the incredible volunteers, dedicated staff, and vibrant community work that make our programs shine.  

We're on our fourth video in this series. This one highlights Justin Ortiz, H.E.A.R.T. Program Coordinator, Speakers Bureau Coordinator, and Drag Queen. They touch on the importance of community and identity. Through their drag persona, Daisy Astrea, they're able to express themselves and cultivate these safe spaces.

Check out Justin's video here. If you haven't seen the first three videos yet, check out Kevin's, Wycoff's, and Sun's interviews.
