The Creating Change Conference, since its inception in 1988, has been a cornerstone in the LGBTQ advocacy landscape. Born from the momentum of the 1987 National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights, this conference quickly became more than an event; it’s a beacon for progress. The Task Force, recognizing the need for a unified front in LGBTQ advocacy, established the Creating Change Conference as a hub for activists, organizers, and community members to exchange ideas, strategies, and inspiration.
Celebrating a Legacy of Change
Over the decades, Creating Change has evolved, reflecting and responding to the ever-changing needs of the LGBTQ community. From groundbreaking workshops to inspirational speeches, each year adds layers to its rich history. It’s a history marked by empowering voices from diverse backgrounds, fostering leadership, and nurturing a collective drive towards equality and inclusion.
Shaping Tomorrow Together
This year’s conference in New Orleans stands as a testament to the power of collective action. Each workshop, each panel, each conversation is an opportunity to ignite change. Attendees are not mere participants; they are architects of the future. It’s an event where connections are made, ideas are shared, strategies are forged, and a new generation of advocacy is born.
The conference buzzes with a unique energy – one of hope, resilience, and unwavering determination. Here, in the heart of New Orleans, attendees from all walks of life share a common goal: to create a world where every individual can thrive, irrespective of their sexual orientation or gender identity. It’s a place where boundaries are pushed, and possibilities are endless. This is where we sculpt the future of LGBTQ advocacy.
