$10,000 to support general operations of this black trans and queer led work that affirms, elevates, and empowers the lives and lived experiences of black trans and queer youth and families through art as resistance, healing practice, and leadership development.

Garden of Peace shifts the focus of dialogue to include those who are the most invisible and vulnerable for violence, poverty, and isolation and bridges the gap between celebration and the need for continued advocacy for and by marginalized people with innovative programming that includes both. Garden of Peace focuses on young people, mothers, and caretakers, as they recognize there is no movement for justice without the people who take care of the future.
