  • Courtney Titus

    Director of Community Engagement

    Courtney (she/her) builds people-powered pathways for LGBTQ+ Wyomingites to show up, belong, and take meaningful action across the state. With a background in grassroots organizing, strategic communications, and large-scale community event planning, Courtney brings both heart and structure to the work of advancing equality in Wyoming. Courtney believes lasting change happens when people feel connected to one another and advocacy is grounded in care, courage, and community. Outside of work, Courtney loves electronic music as a dedicated listener and mediocre but passionate DJ. She finds joy in the small, everyday moments that keep us grounded, especially time with friends, family, and her dog.

  • Sarah Hays

She is most excited about being able to make a meaningful change in people’s lives, and can’t wait to make connections across the state.
