We are excited to invite you to join us at the 2026 Acclaim Awards & Fundraising Reception on Thursday, March 5th at 6pm at The Broadside in New Orleans. Enjoy beverages and light bites as we honor individuals and organizations that have championed the LGBTQ+ community and made us a better Louisiana. Stay tuned for honoree announcements!

With the upcoming Legislative Session beginning on March 9th, we need our supporters more now than ever as we anticipate more anti-LGBTQ+ legistlation. We are standing firm against the challenges we face and are ready to continue to fight for equality and justice for all LGBTQ+ Louisianans. RSVP now and spread the word to your friends.
