LGBTQ Community Town Hall – The Impact Of The Los Angeles Fires on LGBTQ Communities: Ensuring An Inclusive Recovery
May 7 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
If you are a member of the LGBTQ community — or a parent, family member or ally — please join a community town hall to learn more about how the Los Angeles fires have impacted LGBTQ people and to inform ongoing services and inclusive recovery efforts.
Results from LGBTQ respondents to the LA County Wildfire Needs Assessment will be shared, and attendees will have an opportunity to respond and provide further input.
As part of a UCLA research study, the Williams Institute is holding an LGBTQ+ community listening session to better understand the experiences of LGBTQ+ adults impacted by the Eaton and Palisades fires in Los Angeles.
Participation is voluntary. There are no direct benefits to you for participating in the listening session, but results will be provided to Los Angeles County to improve ongoing recovery efforts. Results will also inform a report about how future recovery efforts in response to wildfires and other disasters can be inclusive and responsive to the needs of LGBTQ+ adults.
Participants will receive a complimentary dinner and drinks, and the first 100 attendees will receive a free air purifier.
