Dear LGBTQ+ Voices,
We are excited to continue holding this space for sharing our work as folks working in the LGBTQ+ community and/or as queer evaluators.
2025 is a year of transition. Within the TIG, we are welcoming new leadership to build a community of learning. They are continuing the work to update the TIG's official name and mission to align with our present time. In addition, they are updating this website, planning events, and working to engage members to join our learning community of LGBTQ+ evaluators. We hope you will accompany us in these endeavors as your capacity allows.
Eval 2025's theme is "Engaging Community, Sharing Leadership" which we feel is a great theme for the communities we serve. In addition, we see this as an invitation for all TIG Leaders to reflect on their histories and to share leadership opportunities with their membership.
AEA will send a call for conference submissions at the end of January. If you have ideas about a conference presentation or an LGBTQ+ evaluation you want to present on and would like support, please post to our community page and/or reach out to our team.
We will host a discussion of sharing information and tips on submitting abstracts on February 27th at 11am ET (Please refer to our Newsletter for the invite or reach out for details).
If you are interested in being involved or supporting our TIG community, please reach out.
In Solidarity,
LGBTQ+ Voices in Evaluation Leadership Team
