About the Event
GLAD’s biggest event of the year brought together supporters of LGBTQ equality for an opportunity to unite in resistance, look toward a future of true justice, and support GLAD’s life-changing mission.
Thank you to everyone who made our first ever virtual Spirit of Justice Award Celebration such a success!
We were thrilled to honor Grace Sterling Stowell, activist, LGBTQ social justice leader, and Executive Director of Boston Alliance of LGBTQ Youth (BAGLY). Read more about our honoree here.
Watch the inspiring remarks from the event’s speakers:
