We are currently accepting proposals for workshops at KLT 2017!

KLT provides a unique space for women, gender non-conforming, and trans people of color to explore connections between beauty, health, wellness and Environmental Justice. Whether you are a seasoned community organizer, youth leader, scholar, artist, beauty professional or DIY enthusiast — we encourage you to submit a workshop proposal!

Our theme this year is #LoveSowGrow –— our roots, our seeds, our future. It is a call to embrace our roots as people of color, recognize our potential, and invest in ourselves as leaders to shape a self-determined future. We hope this theme inspires you as you develop your proposal! 

We are looking for workshops that:

• Provide information about Reproductive Justice, health and wellness for women, gender non-conforming, and trans people of color
• Provide information about Environmental Justice
• Explore the intersections of Environmental and Reproductive Justice
• Uplift histories of women, gender non-conforming, and trans people of color
• Feature hands-on / DIY activities
• Teach concrete skills
• Offer insight or discussion on organizing strategies

We aim to create a highly dynamic and generative conference space. If you have another idea for a workshop that would be great for KLT 2017, we want to hear about it!

We’ve extended the workshop deadline.  Submit your idea, and we will be in contact within one business day. 

We will be accepting workshops on a rolling basis. Please email sara@newvoicespittsburgh.org with any questions.

We will provide two nights of housing for accepted presenters who are traveling from out of town.
