Too many lives, bodies, and strengths are undervalued in today's culture. Strength of the Tides is simply a rebuttal of that idea. The project aims to support, celebrate and empower all women, trans and gender queer people on the water in the following ways:
via weekly instagram posts sharing profiles of people on the water
via The Pledge that asks folks of all backgrounds to say out loud that they support women, trans and gender queer people on the water
via events, shared spaces, and an online public facebook page and private facebook group for women, trans and gender queer people on the water
with goals to support women, including trans women, as well as non-binary people who are comfortable in space that center the experience of women, in the opportunity to teach each other the hard and soft skills of on-the-water industries
