Know Your Rights - Teens (Virtual)

Join Us for a Know Your Rights Q&A with Alexis Sanchez!

LGBTQ+ youth, have questions about your rights? Join us for a special Q&A-style event with political expert and activist Alexis Sanchez (she/her/ella). This is your chance to ask questions, gain valuable insights, and learn about your rights.

Alexis is the Deputy Chief Program Officer at the Sacramento LGBT Center, where she works to create policies and programs that support and uplift the LGBTQ+ community. A dedicated activist and policy expert, she is especially passionate about advocating for transgender individuals, particularly trans women of color. Since beginning her advocacy in 2016 after the Pulse Nightclub shooting, she has worked to champion policies that protect and expand opportunities for LGBTQIA+ individuals. 

A longtime friend of Brave Trails, Alexis has inspired our campers as a counselor in the Passion to Action program, teaching youth how to create change through activism. Now, she’s returning to lead this Know Your Rights virtual workshop for LGBTQ+ youth on February 19th.

  • Who’s Invited: Brave Trails campers, alumni, staff, and LGBTQ+ youth ages 11-18.
