We launch Your Queer Parenting Journey. A weekly peer-facilitated support group for people in the queer community who are pregnant, navigating fertility, birthing parents, non-gestational parents, caregivers and adoptive parents. We launch Storyectomy* Baby Bumps. A public storytelling program to promote healing and community and reduce stigma around perinatal mental health conditions.

needed to be in a space where I didn’t have to explain my family structure.
We host From Pain to Power. In partnership with documentary filmmaker Devorah Herbert, Planned Parenthood LA, Black Women for Wellness, AAIMM and Claris Health, this transformative experience unites communities to share stories, make connections, and commit to policy and practice changes in the movement for perinatal mental health justice. We receive the Lark Award, given to community-centered organizations with deep roots in LA for the collective care of their staff.
