California LGBTQ+
Leadership Summit

Equality California Institute and the California Legislative LGBTQ Caucus host an annual California LGBTQ+ Leadership Summit, bringing together nearly 200 openly LGBTQ+ elected and appointed officials from across California to discuss key policy priorities for the LGBTQ+ community and provide leadership and networking opportunities.

As we lean into one of the most pivotal years for LGBTQ+ civil rights, we’re leveling up this year’s Summit with meaningful panels and conversations shaped by feedback from years past, and designed to strengthen our collective impact.

Here’s what to look forward to:

  • Dynamic breakout sessions led by your fellow LGBTQ+ elected and appointed officials, diving into the issues that matter most, sharing strategies, and strengthening your leadership toolkit.
  • Inspiring plenaries featuring powerful voices in the LGBTQ+ civil rights movement.
  • A vibrant resource fair connecting you with Summit sponsors, LGBTQ+ advocacy groups, and allied professional organizations working at the Capitol and beyond.
  • Clear travel scholarship guidelines to ensure equitable access for leaders who need support to attend, because representation should never be limited by resources.
