Landon Krentz
When Landon Krentz moved to Vancouver at the age of 20 in 2010, he found little support for deaf queer people. So he resurrected BC’s Rainbow Alliance for the Deaf (BCRAD) while simultaneously reaching out to the hearing community to make room for deaf people and other people with disabilities and encouraging event organizers to be more inclusive. Now 24, he sits on the board of the new Foundation of Hope to assist gay refugees, immigrants and asylum seekers, and works with the Queer Arts Festival.
