Our vision is to see a GLBTQ culture in Long Beach, CA reinvented as one that embraces meaningful relationships, community partnership, and resident ownership of the city. Our mission is to catalyze a culture of trust, leadership, and life among the diverse communities of this city. Journey with us as we try to "connect and affect" with each other and our world!
The AIDS Walk Long Beach is a great way to "affect" our community. There are numerous agencies that are doing incredible work to address the needs of loved ones with AIDS and HIV and they can use all the support we can give! Form a Walk Team with your friends and do this together.

I'm the founder/Executive Director of the Catalyst Network of Communities, a 501c3 non-profit social impact organization helping people and groups to connect, collaborate, and share resources. I established it in 2006.
Before that, in 2002 I was a co-founder of a faith-based non-profit called Kingdom Causes helping churches, church and lay leaders, and people of faith of diverse denominations to serve their city together. Then I began the journey of reconciling my faith and sexuality and eventually came out of the closet.
I've worked in the gay community. I've worked in the Christian community. I've worked in the gay Christian community. Now I work in THE community - helping to build bridges between diverse people and hopefully encouraging people along the journey of their own lives.
It's never about the answers we think we're seeking. It's always about the questions we are bold enough to ask ourselves. That is what truly shapes us.
