Over the past five years\, though a commitment to focusing fundamentally on IDEA\, our chapter has begun to transform into one where an IDEA lens drives every facet of our chapter’s work. Our successes include the creation of a BIPOC leadership pipeline\, creation of a community-based BIPOC affinity group\, establishing an equitable compensation model for our presentation speakers\, flattening the traditional mentorship hierarchy model\, adopting community-centric fundraising principles\, and more. A longtime annual IDEA Champion designation recipient\, our chapter continues to deepen our commitment to IDEA as our driving force and is eager to share our approach with other chapters. \n\n

SUMMARY:Using Asset-Based Language to Reclaim BIPOC Narratives
DESCRIPTION:Please note: this meeting will be held in person at the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona at our old morning time. See below for details & COVID precautions.\nSingle narratives often create stereotypes which are deficit-framed\, incomplete and harmful. The use of asset-based language in fundraising emphasizes the strengths\, aspirations\, and contributions of communities of color. By honoring the work of people of color rather than portraying them as recipients of charity\, they themselves can lead systemic change efforts in their communities.  \n  \nFrank Velásquez Jr. (he/his)\nA racial and gender equity advocate\, Frank Velásquez Jr. leads and collaborates with passion\, authenticity and an open mind. He connects to the stories that make each of us who we are and the stories that inextricably connect us to each other. His career has included stops in the private sector such as Walt Disney World and MGM Grand Resort & Casino Las Vegas\, as well as higher education (Pima Community College)\, the not-for-profit sector (JobPath\, Boys to Men Tucson)\, and consulting/contracting (YWCA of Southern Arizona\, Sunnyside Foundation and Sol Casinos). Frank’s passion is to bring local\, regional\, and national attention to the inequities that people of color face\, and does this currently through his workforce and community development work in Southern Arizona. His favorite project was the creation and soon-to-be-launched Women’s Economic Advancement Center at YWCA of Southern Arizona\, a self-sufficiency center designed to meet women where they are and provide them holistic support so that they can achieve economic stability. He currently works as the Director of Workforce Initiatives at the Tucson Metro Chamber of Commerce. \nIn his free time\, Frank loves to play basketball\, travel the globe\, hike\, and watch a good movie/show/play with his partner in crime. \nCOVID Precautions: \nAccording to current Pima County Health Department and CDC guidelines\, AFP is operating in Yellow/Medium category: \n\nMasking is required indoors\nProof of vaccination or a negative test (72 hours) is required at the door\nPlease do not attend if you have recently tested positive for COVID or are showing any potential symptoms

SUMMARY:Connection to Care: How Events Can Bring Community Together
DESCRIPTION:Events often play a significant fundraising role for nonprofits each year. Unfortunately\, events are not the efficient fundraisers they once were (if they ever were). Join our speakers from the Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation and Phoenix Pride to learn how they use events to bring community together for a bigger purpose. During their presentation they will share the history of their organizations as well as the grassroots connections that led to highly successful\, well attended\, and deeply loved yearly events that do not focus solely on raising money. \n  \nEva Steele (she/her/hers) Director of Programs – Phoenix PRIDEIn 2015\, five years after beginning her transition Eva\, originally from MI\, decided to move to Phoenix to dive into the Metropolitan Phoenix LGTBQ+ Community and develop her career. In 2017 she won the Miss Phoenix Pride Pageant and later that year was elected to the Board of Directors. In her board service\, she served as the Audit Committee Chair and on the Education and Outreach Committee. In 2018 she made the professional shift leaving Cosmetic Retail and her Board Service to become the Phoenix Pride Program Manager. In 2019 she attended the Arizona Leadership Academy and ASU Lodestar obtaining her Non-Profit Management Certification. \nBecause of her experience in the Corporate Sector and her lived experience as a Bi-Racial trans woman\, Eva created the Phoenix Pride Diversity and Inclusion Training\, presented to local and national corporations agencies and entities to create lasting inclusive workplace policies and settings allowing all employees to truly thrive. Eva also serves the local organization The Imperial Court of Arizona as a volunteer and member and in 2021 Eva was sworn in as Council Member to the Greater Phoenix Ryan White HIV Services Planning Council and was announced as the organization’s first Director of Programs. \n  \nLanden Smith (he/him/his) Development Manager – Phoenix PRIDE\nLanden originally from Toledo\, Ohio has been a resident of Phoenix since 2006. After coming out in 2007 he was able to attend his first pride festival here in Phoenix and has been nearly every year since. With a background in clothing retail management for nearly 15 years\, Landen began working with Phoenix Pride in 2017 after winning the title of Mister Phoenix Pride. Later that year he joined the Phoenix Pride Board of Directors. In his four years on the board\, he served as Audit Committee Chair\, Director at Large\, and later as the President before taking the leap from board service to staff. Additionally\, he is the Co-Director for the Phoenix Pride Pageantry System. Landen also previously served as Emperor XIV and Vice-President of local community non-profit\, the Imperial Court of Arizona. \nOutside of the office you can catch Landen dancing on stages across the valley entertaining as “Kristofer Inez Onyx” and traveling throughout the country whenever he has the opportunity. \n  \nMonique Vallery is the Director of Development at the Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation (SAAF). She joined SAAF after serving as the Chief Operations Officer and Creative Director at Fourth Avenue Merchants Association. Monique also serves as Board President for Homicide Survivors\, Inc. Her commitment to Homicide Survivors and MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) comes from a very passionate place\, due to a personal loss her family experienced and the kindness they received from the community. She has spent the last 18 years in Tucson developing and supporting both corporate and nonprofit events as well as fundraising. Her strongest value is believing that our community is about building and maintaining relationships. \n
