Twin Cities Pride Amplified
Saturdays 3-4 PM
Twin Cities Pride Amplified is a program dedicated to all things LGBTQIA+ community, both here in the Twin Cities area, and beyond. Hosted by TC Pride’s Executive Director Andi Otto and Executive Assistant Rina Heisel, no topic is off limits as we discuss queer rights, culture, health, and events taking place around the metro area. Pride is more than just a weekend in June; the LGBTQIA+ community deserves celebration, elevation, and support all year, so tune in to stay up-to-date on the latest community and TC Pride news. Allies are always encouraged to tune in!
Andi and Rina are joined by Dt. Kade Goepferd, Chief Education Officer and the Medical Director of Children’s Minnesota Gender Health Program. They’ll talk about what it’s been like managing disinformation regarding gender affirming care and that there is hope on the horizon.
