As PGN marks its 49th year, we are proud to recognize 49 LGBTQ+ leaders whose impact continues to shape the future of our community. This year’s honorees embody resilience, vision and dedication — qualities that drive progress and inspire change. From those who have long fought for equality to emerging voices charting new directions, each represents a vital part of our collective legacy.

Unlike traditional “influential” lists, this recognition seeks to uplift those whose contributions often happen outside the spotlight. These leaders strengthen our neighborhoods, advocate for justice, expand representation, and build bridges across communities. Their stories reflect the power of visibility and the importance of honoring work that too often goes unseen.

We will celebrate their achievement
