"We are most vulnerable when we hope..."
A straight, CIS woman, Patricia is a fierce advocate of the LGBTQIA+ community, especially when it comes to children. She facilitates The Beautiful People, the student-led Gay/Straight Alliance at the high school where she works. This club provides brave spaces for students to be themselves without judgment or prejudice and encourages them to share their experiences in a safe environment.
Patricia is also the co-advisor of the Panther Anti-Racist Union (PARU) with club founder, Benjamin Hodge. Both teachers supported students who led a series of successful protests to reverse a racially motivated ban on books by and about people from the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. They continue to work with the core group of PARU and new members to continue fighting for diversity and representation. Checkout their website: https://pantherantiracistunion.com/index.html
