SHINING A LIGHT ON HUMAN RIGHTS
When we come together in community, we are a powerful force for truth, justice, and human dignity. At this year’s dinner, we celebrate this courage, and we recommit to the work ahead. Join us as we share the stories that must be heard and mobilize to continue protecting families, strengthening legal defense, and building the historical record that will shape accountability and healing for years to come.
KEYNOTE SPEAKER & DON AND ARVONNE FRASER HUMAN RIGHTS AWARD WINNER
We honor the Right Reverend
Mariann Edgar Budde for her
commitment to human rights and
the dignity of all people,
particularly for her public defense
of immigrants, LGBTIQ+
individuals, and those excluded
from power. Her book, How We
Learn to Be Brave, describes the
moments in our lives when we must act with courage
and the importance of what we do afterward.
