FILLING THE LGBTQ+ SUPPORT VOID BETWEEN CHICAGO AND NORTH-CENTRAL INDIANA

Our Mission.

LGBTQ Northwest Indiana's Primary Mission is to provide  support, education and resources to the LGBTQ+  community

Support groups, workshops, special topics and an online resource directory will serve to fulfill our primary mission.

Promote LGBTQ+ community visibility, acceptance and equality

The LGBTQ+ community is a valid and tangible contributor to the Northwest Indiana area.  With visibility comes acceptance, with acceptance comes equality.

The community is not just the LGBTQ+ community; it is everyone living and working in the Northwest Indiana area.  Removing the stigmas and phobias, and changing the negative assumptions and beliefs is goal of this mission.
