We’re on a mission to nurture belonging for LGBTQIA+ people throughout Tennessee
We believe that in order to create a community of belonging, we must offer opportunities to engage in enriching pursuits that bring happiness and positive emotions. We also help our community members explore their authentic self, to celebrate their genuine identity to build confidence, enhance personal expression and celebrate our beloved community.
Our LGBTQIA+ community consistently experiences challenges of social rejection, stigma, and discrimination due to our identities. By creating opportunities of belonging, we can reduce the negative experiences our community lives through so we can thrive as whole people.
We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive.
Creating a thriving community requires the establishment of a strong culture, which is formed by three key elements: belief, behavior, and boundaries. The challenge lies in nurturing, eliminating, or intentionally planting aspects of culture to strengthen the community's identity and unity. It's about recognizing and reinforcing positive cultural traits while transforming or removing those that are detrimental to the community's well-being. We can achieve a community that thrives when we work in collaboration to building a community where love leads the way.
Our research is used to create change here at home.
