x freelon - Executive Director
As Executive Director, x utilizes their knowledge as a healer and over ten years of experience as a youth advocate, community organizer, and  interdisciplinary artist to guide and ground their leadership in compassion. x feels that in order to effectively show up on behalf of the community, we must practice “listening to the heart of matters,” which for x means placing the voices and experiences of the most vulnerable amongst us at the center of our efforts. Born in the Delta and raised throughout the Deep South, x is familiar with the experience of queer and transphobia, and incorporates their history as a black, non-binary femme  in all aspects of their work. x was brought to Little Rock through love, art, friendship, and a passion for black and queer histories, and is committed to a vision of transformation for Lucie’s Place.
x has been a part of the Little Rock queer community for going on 8 months now and looks forward to sharing themselves with the community who they serve. They would love to hear back from former members, friends of Lucie’s Place, past and present volunteers, and those previously employed who are interested in sharing their experience.
