About the event

Community Classroom: An Insider's Guide to Advocacy and Queer Policy
Join us for a relevant community teach-in on queer policy and advocacy!

About this Event

With our national government increasingly hostile—and at times directly targeting our community—there’s no better time to get involved in advocacy.


But where do you begin? What does queer policy even look like? What protections exist here in New York, and what threats are we facing at the national level? How does an idea actually become law?


Join us for our first Community Classroom event:

An Insider’s Guide to Advocacy & Queer Policy

Thursday, June 26

The Flour Bender Bakeshop (15 2nd St., Downtown Troy)


Hosted by Meagon Nolasco—Collar City Pride founder, master-level social worker, and current NYS staffer focusing on LGBTQ+ and Reproductive Rights policy. Meagon will break down how legislation works, share insights from inside the Capitol, and offer actionable steps for getting involved.


Space is limited—register at the link in our bio.

Donations are suggested, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.

Drinks and snacks are available for purchase from our friends at The Flour Bender.


Do you have a policy or advocacy question you’d like addressed? Leave a note at registration so we can cover this!

Con nuestro gobierno nacional cada vez más hostil, y en ocasiones atacando directamente a nuestra comunidad, no hay mejor momento para involucrarse en la defensa de derechos.


¿Pero por dónde empezar? ¿Cómo se ve realmente la política queer? ¿Qué protecciones existen aquí en Nueva York y qué amenazas enfrentamos a nivel nacional? ¿Cómo se convierte una idea en ley?


Acompáñenos en nuestro primer evento de Aula Comunitaria:

Guía práctica sobre defensa de derechos y políticas queer

Jueves, 26 de junio

The Flour Bender Bakeshop (Calle 2, 15, Centro de Troy)


Presentado por Meagon Nolasco, fundadora de Collar City Pride, trabajadora social con maestría y actual miembro del personal del estado de Nueva York, especializada en políticas LGBTQ+ y derechos reproductivos. Meagon explicará cómo funciona la legislación, compartirá perspectivas desde dentro del Capitolio y ofrecerá pasos prácticos para participar.


Cupo limitado: regístrese en el enlace de nuestra biografía. Se sugieren donaciones, pero no se rechazará a nadie por falta de fondos.

Bebidas y refrigerios disponibles para comprar con nuestros amigos de The Flour Bender.
