Dear John,

To ensure the sustainability of our work and continue offering high-quality, culturally grounded programming, we are making a thoughtful change to our Advocate of the Month initiative. Beginning this month, we will transition to an Advocate of the Quarter schedule.

This decision was made with great care and intentionality. Moving to a quarterly recognition allows us to continue uplifting and celebrating the incredible work you do, while still providing a $250 stipend.

For this first quarter, nominations for October, November, and December will be due by December 15, 2025.

We deeply appreciate your ongoing commitment to advocacy, kinship, and healing in our communities. Thank you for all the amazing work you do.

With gratitude,
