What is the Alumni Network?
- The network is our way of keeping you up-to-date on FIERCE and our events and more importantly its a way to help find you ways to stay involved with FIERCE even after aging out!
- By joining the network you’ll be plugged into FIERCE once again and presented with opportunities to re-engage with FIERCE and support the work of the next generation of LGBTQ youth of color organizers!
Take the alumni survey!
- The survey is super important because it allows us to assess the impact that FIERCE has had on young people throughout the years. Its a way of affirming and re-evaluating the work that we’ve been doing and will do. We want to know what our alumni are up to and hear your feedback.
- Click on Survey to catch us up on what you've been up to! Once there you can opt to join the network.
