We believe in the core values of respect, integrity, and grace for each other and for ourselves. We work toward the goals of joy, advocacy, and safety in our programming and events. We value the concept, as well as the reality, of unity through community; we commit to serving the LGBTQIA+ community through active listening, teamwork, and transparency.
