By Robin McHaelen | Executive Director
Like every year, our 1st quarter report focuses on our annual conference. The 24th annual True Colors conference, "Imagine a world!" was incredibly successful - largely due to the support of people like YOU!
“Not only was it the place where I learned I was transgender 7 years ago, this conference is responsible for helping me become the activist I am today. If it weren't for true colors, … I would have never had the courage to stand up for my rights in high school and college, and trained the faculty on transgender rights. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart, and let you know how much the conference and organization means to me.” —a young adult participant
“I wanted to reach out to you and tell you what an amazing time I had this weekend...I was educated, enlightened and inspired. What a very necessary organization you have for these amazing youth.” —a presenter
“You have created an environment filled with joy for another year for our students to enjoy. I also took away valuable information as an educator.”— a teacher
With more than 3,500 participates, we imagine thousands of more stories like these. Support like yours made experiences like theirs possible. We are very grateful.
Please feel free to contact us at (860) 232-0050 or by email at director@ourtruecolors.org. We would love to hear from you -- feedback about our reports, programs etc; for more information about the programs your donations help support or for any reason. Your voice is always welcome here.
Thank you again. Together, we imagine -- a create - a world in which every child is welcomed, valued and affirmed.
