Announcing the Bands and Chorus playing at Suisun Pride! We love our Sponsors! Pre-Pride Drag Show Set, Support your Local LGBTQIA2S+ Center... | | |
Dear Friends,
We are so pleased to announce that we will have the Sacramento Gay Men's Chorus sharing their musical talents at Suisun Pride 2026! This is a first in a while to have the SGMC with us in Solano County, and we can't wait to hear them! Some of us heard them at a concert at UC Davis last year with their joint choirs singing a special group of music written to support the Laramie Project.
| |
We are pleased to have "The Freeze32°F" playing at Suisun Pride again for the second year in a row! You will remember them for all of the classics they play, but will hear some new music as well. Miss Alleta Nash of Benicia joined the band as lead vocalist (shades of Janis Joplin mixed with SIA), adding spicy harmonies, and our newest addition to the line up, bass man Roberto Orozco, brings a fresh perspective to our rhythm section with some hot bass action.
| |
We are also pleased to have School of Rock Vacaville's own "Glass Cactus" closing the day out at Suisun Pride again! This youth band has performed at Suisun Pride, Pride in the Park at Andrew's Park in Vacaville, and multiple other community events around the county and beyond. They even rotate more teens and young adults into different songs so more can share their diverse musical talents! Thanks for representing at Suisun Pride 2026!

| Drag & Regional events lower in the email... | Like other LGBTQIA2S+ Centers, We Need Your Financial Support! Keep your Local Center Open by giving today! | |
Can you spare a few dollars to help keep the Center open during these trying times? LGBTQIA2S+ Centers across the state are experiencing a drop in donations, and your support is crucial to help us continue delivering the life-saving services our community depends on. We've even put all of our donation and Pride links in the same place above!
We are recognizing that the uncertainty since Trump returned to office has definitely affected giving for our life-sustaining programs. If you are in a place to share financially right now, we definitely need your help right now. You can even set up a monthly donation of as little as $5 a month, which helps us more than you can know.
If you are giving to our General Fund to support all of our programming, you can give through our portal on Zeffy at https://tinyurl.com/Give2SolanoPride. Or, you can check out our new Donations Page, with links to Pride Sponsorships, and Regular Giving here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/organizations/solano-pride-center. Donate today!

Stephan's Corner
Dear Solano Pride Community,
Check on your friends. As the rights of our community are debated across Governor races and in many assemblies in states across the country, I wonder how we are all doing? Many of us have been through a lifetime of this. Erasure removes those fights, protests, riots, trials and tribulations of the diversity within gender and sexual orientation in humanity, leaving many of us unfamiliar, scared and alone.
So whether youthful lack of familiarity or seasoned in the pendulum swings of civil rights in the United States, either way the fear and uncertainty of the future can lead to isolation, which is not good for our collective mental well being.
Sometimes asking for help can be really hard. Many of us have had to grow up alone and our independence provides a sense of identity and achievement, so when we do help we’re afraid to ask. Sometimes when we stay away too long, we can be afraid it won’t feel the same or people will ask too many questions or be angry with us for being gone.
So please reach out to your friends. Boundaries are good and definitely honor them, and don’t forget to stop checking and inviting.
Solano Pride Center has many social and therapeutic gatherings to help in this endeavor. We look forward to seeing you, for the first time or again.

Coping with Loss and Grief.
Grief has no set boundaries. Grief comes in many different avenues such as losing a spouse, parents, a sibling, your pet, the loss of a friend or a friendship, even the loss of a job can cause us to grieve.
This new group will continue Friday, May 8th from 10 - 11:30 am on zoom. The next gathering would be May 22nd, also online.
The way in which we cope with the loss is the way in which we begin to heal and move forward with our lives no matter the depth of pain and sorrow we are in. One way and there are many depending on how one copes with the loss is to talk about what we are feeling, what we are going through and share those feelings and thoughts with others who may be experiencing the same just as you are. The grief counseling session is an avenue for people to continue their healing process. More info, including the zoom link, at Kacen@solanopride.org or Tim Meyers at tjm1756@yahoo.com.

Upcoming events!
Welcome to May! 🌸
As spring settles in and the days grow brighter, May invites us to pause, reconnect, and celebrate the many ways care, creativity, and community show up in our lives. This month offers space for both reflection and joy—from honoring Mother’s Day in all its beautifully diverse forms, to cultivating inspiration and togetherness right here at home.
Mother’s Day reminds us that “mothering” isn’t one‑size‑fits‑all. Within our LGBTQ+ community, it can mean chosen family, nurturing mentors, caregivers, elders, and anyone who leads with love and compassion. We celebrate all who show up with strength, tenderness, and pride—each and every day.
May also brings us outdoors, and we’re thrilled to highlight the Vallejo Garden Tour, a wonderful opportunity to experience creativity in full bloom. Gardens have long been places of resilience, expression, and growth—values that resonate deeply with our community. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or simply enjoy soaking up beauty and fresh air, this event is a lovely way to connect with neighbors and support local spaces that make Vallejo shine.
Thank you for being part of our community. As you read on, we hope this leaves you feeling seen, inspired, and rooted in the knowledge that you belong.

Registration is officially open for the 40th annual AIDS Walk San Francisco!
For four decades, our community has come together to walk in solidarity, remembrance, and hope. Since our very first steps in 1987, AIDS Walk San Francisco has raised critical funds for HIV prevention, care, and support services across the Bay Area. Generations of walkers, team captains, volunteers, and advocates have built this movement. We have only been able to achieve all of our successes, including raising over $100 million throughout the years, because of participants like you.
Now, in our 40th year, we are preparing to honor that legacy and want you to join us along the way.
We remember the early years, when fear and stigma were everywhere but our community showed up anyway. We celebrate the progress made through activism, research, and compassion. And we recommit ourselves to the work ahead because, as we know, the fight to end HIV is not over.
Join us as we return to Golden Gate Park to mark this powerful milestone together. Whether you walked in the early days, joined us somewhere along the way, or are returning after time away, this anniversary belongs to all of us.
Register today to celebrate 40 years of impact and activism, honor the lives lost and uplift those living with HIV/AIDS, reconnect with a community built on resilience, and help us launch the next chapter of progress.
Register today, start your team, and let’s make the 40th Annual AIDS Walk San Francisco one for the history books!
We can't wait to see you in Golden Gate Park on Sunday, July 19!

Week of Apr. 26-May 2, 2026:
-
Supreme Court Guts Voting Rights Act in 6-3 Decision: On Wednesday, the Supreme Court significantly narrowed Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, a key provision that broadly outlawed discrimination in voting on the basis of race for decades. The case involved a challenge to two majority-Black districts in Louisiana. The majority found that evidence of racial disparity in the drawing of earlier maps was too weak to justify the use of race to draw the new map. The decision creates further uncertainty to redistricting following the Court’s 2019 holding that partisan gerrymandering is not prohibited by the constitution.
-
House Committee Hears Anti-Trans Education Bill: Earlier this week, the House Rules Committee discussed House Bill 2616 (the Parental Rights Over the Education and Care of Their [PROTECT] Kids Act), which would require any public elementary and middle schools that receive federal funding to require parental consent to change a child’s gender expression in school. This includes getting approval before allowing children to use their preferred locker room or bathroom. LGBTQ+ rights advocates have criticized these efforts, as it raises issues of at-home safety — especially if the home is not LGBTQ+-affirming — and could lead to the outing of transgender students.
-
Trump HUD Department Proposes Rollback of Federal Gedner Identity Housing Protections: The Department of Housing and Urban Development is accepting public comments on a proposed rule that would remove references to “gender” and “gender identity” from agency regulations and replace them with “sex,” defined as a person’s biological classification as male or female. If finalized, the rule would repeal an Obama-era rule that ensured housing programs are open without regard to gender identity. The new rule also would allow owners or operators of shelters and other facilities that permit single-sex or sex-specific facilities “...to require reasonable assurances and evidence to confirm the sex of an individual seeking service.” National Housing Law Center Chief Program Officer Deborah Thrope said the proposal would "[force] more housing insecure people to live on the street rather than in shelter.”
-
Group of Transgender Federal Prisoners Will Have Safety Concerns Re-Adjudicated in District Court: A three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit vacated a preliminary injunction issued by a lower court which had blocked the transfer of eighteen transgender women to men’s federal prisons. Each of the plaintiffs had been diagnosed with gender dysphoria, received long-term hormone therapy, and some had undergone gender-affirming surgeries. The plaintiffs alleged that transferring them to men’s prisons would expose them to grave risks of violence, abuse, and psychological harm. The Appellate panel held that the district court’s original decision was too broad and remanded the case back to the district court.
-
RFK, Jr. Claims 'Press 3' Crisis Line Option Will Be Reinstated: HHS Secretary Kennedy confirmed in a Senate hearing that specialized services for LGBTQ+ youth at the 988 Suicide Prevention Hotline will be restored after it was abruptly cut last summer. A recent study has found that after the launch of the hotline in 2022, suicide deaths among teens and young adults were about 11% lower than expected, amounting to roughly 4,400 fewer deaths through 2024. It remains to be seen whether RFK, Jr. — who has advanced numerous anti-LGBTQ+ policies — will follow though on that commitment.
-
SCOTUS Declines to Hear Case Regarding Schools, Civil Rights. The Supreme Court has declined to decide if a Florida school district violated the civil rights of a transgender student’s parents by developing a gender transition plan for the child without their knowledge. The parent-plaintiffs allowed their child to use a “new nickname” at school but told the child’s teacher they did not support the use of new pronouns. An 11th Circuit panel ruled 2-1 against the parents last March after finding that the district’s actions did not “shock the conscience.” The majority reasoned that the child was not physically harmed or forced to participate in the transition plan.
-
Anti-Trans Zealot Nominated by Trump as United States Surgeon General. Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he would be nominating Nicole Saphier, a longtime Fox News contributor, to serve as the next surgeon general of the United States. Saphier has been an ardent anti-transgender voice, hosting detransitioners on her podcast, calling being transgender a "fad" and a "trend" among youth, equating gender-affirming care with "promoting body dysmorphic disorder," and declaring that transgender youth constitute a mental health "national emergency.”
-
Federal Challenge Filed Against Anti-Transgender Idaho Bathroom Ban. Lambda Legal, the nation’s largest LGBTQ+ civil rights legal organization, and other legal groups filed suit in federal court Thursday on behalf of six transgender Idahoans in a challenge to the recently-passed HB 752. The bill, signed by Governor Brad Little earlier this year, is one of the most severe anti-transgender bathroom bans in the country; a first offense is a misdemeanor with up to a one-year prison sentence, while a second offense is a felony with up to five years in prison. The bill applies to all government buildings and businesses open to the public; Lambda’s Kell Olson and F. Curt Kirschner, Jr. say the law is “...intended to erase the very existence of Idaho’s transgender community.”
-
California Senator Holds Hearing on Health Challenges for LGBTQ+ Seniors. In a State Senate hearing titled Supporting the Generation That Built the Movement, advocates and LGBTQ+ seniors examined how California’s systems are falling short in supporting those aging with HIV and transgender seniors. Senator John Laird, who convened the hearing, emphasized it would inform ongoing budget and policy discussions with a focus on improving coordination across systems and ensuring programs are reaching those most in need.

Good afternoon Solano Pride Center team,
My name is Emerson Shiang and I am the research coordinator at UCSF’s Division of Prevention Science (Department of Medicine) for an older gay men’s study called Openly Gray, and an older trans women’s study called Matriarch. Earlier this year our study was cancelled by the federal government, and while our study has been reinstated, we are still at risk for being terming due to our population. Therefore, we are in a great rush to gather as many participants as we can and have expanded our reach from outside the 9 counties of the Bay Area to Santa Cruz, Fresno, and Sacramento.
Matriarch 8.5 x 14Download
A quick blurb about the studies:
Openly Gray is a NIH funded study that explores what contributes to health and wellbeing of aging gay men. Participants will go through an interview that includes a blood collection via finger prick, an online questionnaire, and a chance to refer friends to the study. They will receive a stipend of $100 for their participation and then for each friend they refer to the study they will receive an additional $25. We are looking to recruit gay, cis-men, ages 50 and over who live in the San Francisco Bay Area, Santa Cruz, Fresno, and Sacramento, and identify as Black/African American, Latino, or Asian & Pacific Islander. We have already reached our goal for White participants; so currently, we are not accepting White participants and are looking for individuals that identify as Black/African American, Asian/Pacific Islander, and Latino/Hispanic. The study can be done remotely over Zoom or in person at UCSF Mission Bay. Participation can be English or Spanish.
Matriarch is a supplemental grant we received off Openly Gray that will be looking at the same things but for older trans women. Participants will go through the same interview process that includes a blood collection via finger prick, an online questionnaire, and a chance to refer friends to the study. They will receive a stipend of $100 for their participation and then for each friend they refer to the study they will receive an additional $25. We are looking to recruit trans women, ages 50 and over who live in the San Francisco Bay Area, Santa Cruz, Fresno, and Sacramento, and identify as White, Black/African American, Latina/Hispanic, or Asian & Pacific Islander. The study can be done remotely over Zoom or in person at UCSF Mission Bay. Participation can be English or Spanish.
I will attach our flyers and palm cards to this email. People who are interested should just text or call the phone number, and leave their name, best phone number to contact, and say they learned about the study from Solano Pride Center. If you would like us to drop off hard copies of the materials, let us know and we would be happy to come by. Additionally, should you want a more in-depth presentation about the studies, we would be happy to do that as well.
Please reach out if you have any questions.
Best,
Emerson

Key Aspects of the Day:
- Purpose: To raise awareness, challenge stereotypes, and increase visibility for pansexual and panromantic individuals within and outside the LGBTQ+ community.

-
Celebration: Events, educational posts, and social media campaigns are used to educate on the topic and the Pansexual Pride flag.
According to the Heckin' Unicorn blog, this day is distinct from the Pansexual and Panromantic Pride day held on December 8th. As noted by the Workplace Pride, the day focuses on acknowledging that pan individuals are attracted to the person, not the gender.
