Help Us Honor Allies

At this event, we would also like to recognize allies who, like Mariam, have contributed to and assisted the LGBTQ+ community in southeast Michigan.

If there is someone you would like recognized as a “HOPEful Ally” whose service to the LGBTQ+ community has moved forward the agendas of justice and equality, please share their information and a bit about their work, here. We will recognize them at the virtual event and express our gratitude for their work in the community.
