WHY THE WIZARD OF OZ:
At The Project, Dorothy and her friends taught us to face our fears with courage, to always choose compassion, and to lead with heart. We carry these lessons with us each and every day as we care for our community.
Judy Garland’s voice and vulnerability touched generations, becoming a symbol of hope for many living life on the margins. For decades, LGBTQ+ people referred to one another as “Friends of Dorothy”—a discreet expression of identity and connection rooted in safety and a shared cultural experience. Garland’s legacy and her iconic portrayal of Dorothy Gale speak to the courage, authenticity, and power of being seen, all values that remain deeply connected to the history of the HIV movement.
