Dear WI LGBTQ Summit Attendees, Presenters, and Sponsors:
We are canceling the 2020 Wisconsin LGBTQ Summit scheduled for March 28th, 2020 in Milwaukee as a result of the continued spread of the coronavirus.
Recently, the Wisconsin State Department of Health Services (DHS) recommended that all non-essential gatherings of 250 or more people be cancelled or postponed state wide to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, a recommendation we are following.
This has not been an easy decision, since events like ours are spaces for folx in the LGBTQ community and their allies to gather and hold community with each other, but we understand that health concerns take precedence.
We will gladly provide registration refunds, please send your refund request to dcarr@diverseandresilient.org . And please do what you must to remain healthy.
In Solidarity,
Diverse and Resilient and Fair Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin LGBTQ Summit is focused on building a more skilled and connected network of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ), and allied individuals who are empowered to achieve and protect LGBTQ equality in their local communities across the state of Wisconsin.
At the Summit, you can:
- deepen your understanding of issues facing the LGBTQ community;
- network with others in our community from across the state;
- learn what organizations and individuals are doing to advance health, safety, fairness, and inclusion in the LGBTQ community in Wisconsin; and
- join efforts to ensure LGBTQ protections in Wisconsin.
Join established and emerging leaders, activists, advocates, community members, and allies from throughout Wisconsin for a day of learning and networking.
