Dear Kirsten,
A quick reminder that our next Catch Your Breath call is happening this week:
Catch Your Breath Calls<https://Intersectnorthwest.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=865ebf3742b551966302c3500&id=7fcca9e9ac&e=2dc94616e1>
Wednesday, June 18 | 11:30 AM–1:00 PM PT
This is a spacious, low-pressure gathering for those navigating gender justice work in hard times. No prep required — simply come as you are to exhale, reflect, and connect.
We also have two upcoming virtual trainings designed to meet this moment with clarity, care, and commitment:
LGBTQIA2S+ Allyship in 2025: How to Actively Resist Homophobia and Transphobia<https://Intersectnorthwest.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=865ebf3742b551966302c3500&id=de8b07d800&e=2dc94616e1>
Tuesday, June 24 | 9:30 AM–12:00 PM PT
A supportive session for those seeking to deepen their allyship — as supervisors, colleagues, family members, and community members.
Toward Radical Transformation: Serving and Supporting Trans and Nonbinary People in a Time of Backlash<https://Intersectnorthwest.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=865ebf3742b551966302c3500&id=14fd022e9f&e=2dc94616e1>
Tuesday, July 8 | 9:30 AM–12:00 PM PT
For nonprofit staff, service providers, and advocates ready to move beyond symbolic inclusion and into liberatory, identity-affirming practice.
We’d love to see you — or someone from your team — at one or more of these offerings.
Our fall schedule is starting to fill — if you’ve been thinking about partnering on a training or project<https://Intersectnorthwest.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=865ebf3742b551966302c3500&id=3f47b03e03&e=2dc94616e1>, we’d love to hear from you.
In solidarity,
The INTERSECT Team

LGBTQIA2S+ Allyship in 2025:
How to Actively Resist Homophobia And Transphobia
Join us for a virtual session on LGBTQIA2S+ allyship in a shifting world. With rising attacks and deliberate erasure targeting queer and trans communities, now is the time to deepen your understanding and take meaningful action. You'll leave with tools to show up with clarity, care, and commitment.

Toward Radical Transformation: Serving and Supporting Trans and Nonbinary People in a Time of Backlash
Join us for a virtual session on serving and supporting trans and nonbinary people in a time of backlash. As anti-trans policies escalate and systems fail those most at risk, we need more than symbolic inclusion — we need bold, affirming change. You’ll leave with tools to transform your practice and stand in true solidarity.

Catch Your Breath Calls
Casual, drop-in gatherings hosted by INTERSECT—a little bit care circle, a little bit strategy session.
These calls grow from the people in the room. You bring what’s real. We’ll hold the rest together.
