Bodily autonomy means 🌟EVERYONE 🌟

This Intersex Awareness Day, join us for a virtual celebration and movement crossover, bringing together cultural workers across reproductive justice, FGM/C, intersex, and trans movements.

interACT and SLIM (Strategy Lab for Intersex Movements) invite you to spend time together for the 30th anniversary of the intersex movement’s special day.

How can we create a world with bodily autonomy for all of us? We'll start with a group embodiment practice led by Sean Saifa Wall. Then we'll hear from Yamani of Groundswell Fund, Mariah Ayscue, Mariya of Sahiyo Voices, and Raquel Willis of Gender Liberation Movement, plus announce new projects with more opportunities for future collaboration.

Together, we’ll explore group embodiment, intersex movement history, and resistance to medical violence.

Back to School resource from Glisten

Back to School - Glisten Back to school is more than the start of a new semester—it's a homecoming. It's a chance to reconnect with friends, meet new people, and find the communities where you can truly belong.

Glisten’s National School Climate Survey is a national survey about LGBTQIA2S+ students’ experiences in school.

It asks about things students deal with every day—feeling safe or unsafe, support from adults, school culture, and what helps students feel like they belong. The information helps Glisten work toward safer, more affirming schools.

If you’re eligible, take the survey here: glisten.org/nscs27
