Hey! I’m Ares (he/they) and I’m excited to be part of the 11th Annual Rainbow Run supporting Callen-Lorde Community Health Center! 

In my past work in community outreach, I helped connect people with housing, healthcare, and mental health services, and I saw firsthand how life-changing accessible, affirming care can be.

This run means a lot to me because it supports organizations expanding vital services for people impacted by HIV/AIDS while creating safe spaces to learn about PrEP, PEP, and prevention in our LGBTQ+ community.

I’m excited to meet new faces, reconnect with community, and keep building momentum together. When we support community health centers, we strengthen lives and uplift entire communities.
