Marcel Acosta ‘01

Marcel was part of a recent Planning Magazine conversation about LGBTQ in Planning.

An excerpt: “From embracing gender-inclusive language to creating safe, economically productive places like the world's first transgender cultural district in San Francisco, supporting LGBTQ+ planners and residents is key to fostering equitable workplaces and communities.

With that in mind, Planning magazine convened a roundtable of members of APA's LGBTQ and Planning Division to get their thoughts on LGBTQ+ communities' needs, what the profession can do to help, and how their identities impact their own work as planners.”
