By Charlotte Robinson, January 21, 2022
The National LGBTQ Task Force’s Creating Change conference has gone virtual due to the on-going impact of the COVID pandemic & will now be held March 19th to 29th.
Over the March conference weekend “Creating Change Remixed” will feature several plenary & keynote speakers, award presentations, daylong institutes & the annual House Ball. In lieu of the customary workshops & caucuses being part of the conference programming the Task Force will host a series of virtual events in 2022 under a new banner of “Creating Change 365.” The Task Force welcomes back Sandra Vallsas as the conference emcee. The programs will include the Annual State of the Movement Address with Task Force Executive Director Kierra Johnson & Deputy Executive Director Mayra Hidalgo Salazar.
