Conexiones Positivas Leadership Camp

In September 2024, We Are Family hosted our Conexiones Positivas Leadership Camp, a three-day camp focused on increasing the leadership development of queer and trans Hispanic and Latine youth in South Carolina! LGBTQ+ young people increased their leadership skills, learned about intersectional social justice issues and movement-building, received resources for affirming health and wellness, while engaging in fun community building activities such as photography, art and more. Grounded in Black queer feminism and intersecting social justice movement frameworks, youth leaders will ultimately see themselves as change agents who are emboldened to advocate for institutional transformation.
