Transgender and gender non-conforming members of our community still face many hurdles due to their gender identities, lacking basic human rights protections at the state and federal levels.

The Flying Squirrel is a wheelchair accessible facility. If ASL or other interpretation is needed, please contact us within 48 hours of the event.
