Mission

Our mission is to create and to sustain a safe space for LGBTQ womyn to connect and dialogue while increasing visibility, promoting holistic healing, and addressing key issues within our communities that will move us towards a more just society.  


Vision

We envision building a group of empowered LGBTQ womyn of color who break the silence, become more consciously engaged in one another's herstory and foster connections in order to become a network of resources and support.
