PresentersApphia K, Board Member, SALGA-NYC, New York, NY SCE Illinois A Building LGBT Allies: Bridging a Gap and Reaching Out to the AAPI CommunityGaining acceptance from parents, family, faith community and community has been the biggest challenge to many AAPI LGBTQ individuals. Although some progress has been made for LGBTQ equality in the US, what are the steps we can take to educate our broad AAPI community to make them our allies? In this interactive workshop, parents/allies will share what has been accomplished with the proven best practices and engage LGBTQ members/allies to devise their own goals and strategies.
