Riverside City College's LASSE was one of the recipients of the 2023 Riverside Pride Advocacy Awards at the Riverside Pride Gayla. LASSE was honored in recognition of their advocacy work in fostering an inclusive and supportive LGBTQ+ community at Riverside City College.

Riverside Pride, a prominent LGBTQ+ organization in the Inland Empire region, hosted the event, which brought together individuals and organizations dedicated to advancing LGBTQ+ equality and advocacy in the community. The gala provided a powerful reminder that love possesses the transformative strength to triumph over any obstacle. Riverside Pride, along with its partners and supporters, remains committed to empowering the community and driving positive change for a brighter future.
