🌈 This season, we celebrate familia: the one we grew up with, the one we’ve created, and the family that found us exactly when we needed it.

💕 For LGBTQ+ Latinx folks across the U.S., many far from where we started, community becomes our home. At Somos Seattle, we uplift each other with compassion, authenticity, and pride.

💫 Whether it’s a friend who checks in, a coworker who understands, a group chat that keeps us laughing, or a community that holds space for us, we honor the love that keeps us grounded.

✨ Here’s to our chosen familia.

🌈 Join our Events & Program Committee!

🎄The holidays can bring a whirlwind of emotions… nostalgia, anxiety, gratitude, and everything in between.

💕 For many in our 2SLGBTQ+ Latinx community, this time of year can feel complicated. Distant from home, family dynamics, and cultural expectations can be a lot to process.

🌟 In Somos, we hold space for your journey, your roots, your identity, and the many emotions this season brings.

💫 We would like to uphold that you belong here, you are seen, and are valued while existing in all your truths.

🙏🏽 Thank you for being part of our community.
