Sussex Pride is excited to be developing an online speakers bureau with the help of our volunteer Cynthia Poletti. This is an opportunity for individuals with lived experience or expertise on LGBTQ+ issues to give back to our community by putting themselves out as speakers on topics important to our community. The Speakers Bureau will be a tremendous resource to School Gender and Sexuality Alliances (GSAs), community organizations, and other businesses and groups to identify speakers who can bring their knowledge and experience to the table.

Would you like to be included in the Resource Directory? Here’s how to get started:
- Visit this page on our website.
- If you’d like to, you can create a user account or log in to your user account. If not, continue as a guest.
- Select Speakers Bureau.
- Submit the information.
When you submit your Speakers Bureau profile, please indicate what counties you are willing to visit. If you request a fee or honorarium for speaking engagements, that’s fine. Please just indicate this in your bio.
After you’ve submitted your information, Cynthia will follow up with you. Allow a few days for this to happen. You may want to suggest additional categories be added to the Speakers Bureau or have other questions or suggestions. All inquiries can be directed to Cynthia at speakers@sussexpride.org.
