Lace Meets Leather Gala 2026

The New Jersey Leather Family and The Sovereign Court of Puerto Rico bring back the “Lace Meets Leather Gala” this year to benefit two amazing organizations and charity; Prevention Resource Network and The Sylvia Rivera Legacy Fund.

The Prevention Resource Network (prnvnacj.org), serving the community since 1996, provides free, confidential, and judgment-free care built on trust, dignity, and human connection. With 30 years in operation, 100+ volunteers, and 20 client services delivered by a people-first team of case managers, outreach workers, nurses, and peers, the organization offers free rapid HIV and STI testing in office, mobile, or at home, harm reduction supplies and overdose prevention tools, case management and counseling for people living with HIV, PrEP and PEP navigation, buprenorphine treatment and support for people who use drugs, and affirming care for LGBTQ+ and transgender community members.

The mission of the Sylvia Rivera Trans Legacy Fund is to support transgender and gender-diverse people, emphasis on sex workers, throughout Puerto Rico by providing emergency assistance, access to care, essential resources, referrals, and compassionate support during times of need.

We are committed to serving our communities.
