CUNY LGBTQI+ Student Conference

Established in 2021, the CUNY LGBTQI+ Student Conference is an annual event that brings together LGBTQI+ students from across CUNY who are interested in learning more about leadership and creating change on our campuses and broader communities.

What does leadership for social change look like? What does an inclusive CUNY look like? This free conference encompasses food, workshops, a resource fair, a keynote address, and most importantly, bringing together queer & trans students, faculty and staff, and allies. This conference is held at a new CUNY college every year. Reach out to your CUNY LGBTQI+ Council representatives for more information on this conference and how to get involved!

Conference Theme: Queer Care: Unleashing Our Power! 

Caring for one another is not only essential to our community’s success, but a radical act of love. Many are navigating difficult times, and it’s crucial we must come together and foster our love for one another. Through community care, we find the strength to amplify our collective power. We must continue to advocate for our community and others, especially our transgender and immigrant loved ones. This conference will offer a space to help us explore ways to care for ourselves and each other, unlocking our shared potential for both personal and collective transformation. Join us to connect, heal, and empower one another.
