Community Engagement & Programs Coordinator The New Pride Agenda

Growing up, I was always told that my dreams were farfetched. Being trans and LatinX felt like two strikes against me in a world that didn't see me. But I've not only pursued my dreams–I've checked off most of the things on my bucket list as a trans woman. I hope my story reminds others that there's no limit to what we can accomplish when we move in our truth.

Cultural worker, community strategist, and proud trans Latina organizer, Jocelyn Bulas (she/her) works at the intersection of justice and trans visibility. As the Community Engagement and Programs Coordinator at The NEW Pride Agenda, she leads dynamic statewide initiatives centering the rights and autonomy of BIPOC, transgender, nonbinary, and Two-Spirit communities. The Mother of House of Milan in NYC’s ballroom scene, Bula cares fiercely for chosen family while organizing events that fuse education, advocacy, and storytelling.

Her expansive vision is deeply rooted in lived experience and authenticity, building collective strength through community care.
