A meetup and advocacy group
for asexuals and aromantics in the greater Los Angeles area.
Empowering the asexual and aromantic communities since 2013.
Ace Los Angeles, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit advocacy and social meetup group for asexuals and aromantics (aces and aros for short) in the greater Los Angeles area. We host meetups and raise public awareness through media consultations, educational presentations and pride events.
Our Message
Asexuality is real and valid.
Asexuality is not a mental illness or disorder.
Relationships can be valid and valuable without sex or romance.
Focal Points of Ace LA
Social
We meet on the second Sunday of each month. Our meetups are very casual. Meetups provide a safe space for asexuals, are aromantic-friendly, and the first half-hour of our Sunday meetup is devoted solely to meeting new members. Please check our FAQ and social media for more info on time and place.
ADVOCACY
We are dedicated to the asexuality advocacy movement in LA. Our goal is to educate and spread visibility on asexuality's wide and diverse spectrum. Past outreach efforts include marching in Long Beach Pride and hosting presentations on Asexuality 101 and Asexuality health issues for medical and mental health professionals.
We are also available for panels and interviews. Please contact us via email or our contact form with inquiries.
media consulting
We have consulted on aseuxality on productions such as BoJack Horseman, Shadowhunters and Big Mouth, and were project partners on Think Tank for Inclusion and Equity’s factsheet on asexuals. We’re available to work with studios, production companies and LGBTQIA organizations to help everyone learn more about what asexuality is – and isn’t! We are content consumers, and if you are content creators crafting narratives involving ace characters and storylines, let us help you get it right and attract more audiences!
“Asexuality is not a signal that a person is necessarily stunted emotionally or physically, and feeling sexual attraction or inclination is not the line everyone must cross to be treated like an adult.”
