In Their Words
Lu on Family
What does “family” mean to you and who belongs in yours?
Our Chosen Family are those people who build something powerful through shared affirmation, support and connection. We choose one another with love, loyalty and care. Chosen family members, both queer and straight, or in-between, create a community where belonging, affirmation and home are found.
