The LGBTQ Victory Institute has announced that Evan Low has been appointed the next President & CEO of LGBTQ+ Victory Institute. Low is a former Mayor & City Councilmember in Campbell, California. Low stated, “When I first ran, I faced the same challenges so many of our leaders do—doubts from insiders, attacks from extremists & the pressure of proving that an out candidate could win. But with the support of LGBTQ+ Victory Fund, I was able to break barriers & make history. I was the first Asian American elected to the Campbell City Council & as the youngest out LGBTQ+ mayor in the nation! Across the country, anti-LGBTQ+ politicians are pushing harmful legislation & working to erase our rights. The best way to fight back is by electing more LGBTQ+ leaders who will stand up for equality at every level of government. That’s why Victory Fund is working around the clock to recruit, train & support LGBTQ+ candidates—so they can run, win & lead.” Low replaces Mayor Annise Parker after 7 dedicated & impactful years of service & leadership of this fabulous org. Evan was a member of the California Legislative LGBT Caucus & served as chair from 2017 to 2018 & 2021 to 2022. He also served as Chair of the California Asian American & Pacific Islander Legislative Caucus. He now brings his leadership & experience to the Victory Institute expanding opportunities for LGBTQ leaders & building a more inclusive future for all. Founded in 1993 by LGBTQ advocates & donors the LGBTQ Victory Institute prepares LGBTQ people to run for office nationwide & provides support once they are elected.
