Public trasnportation in Providence is tough on Sundays (RIPTA). I had to make my way over to PrYSM's office for a seaQuel meeting. seaQuel stands for Southeast Asian Queers United for Empowerment and Leadership. Here's their mission statement:
"provide a safe and supportive space for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, queer and questioning (GLBTQQ) as well as straight SEAA (Southeast Asian American) youth where they can lead healthy lives and develop their leadership and organizing skills to become involved in creating social change in their communities. seaQuel builds the leadership skills of SEAA youth, brings cross-cultural and inter-generational dialogue on sexuality to the SEAA community, and seeks to challenge the larger GLBTQQ community's definition of diversity."
This was my first seaQuel meeting ever, and my first time ever at PrYSM's Office. I definitely had a warm welcome. The staff are professional, but the space defintely can make one feel at home. From my understanding, seaQuel meeting runs bi-weekly.
