OutFront Minnesota

This is a year that Minnesotans will remember for a long time. One full of both painful loss and beautiful promise. 

As this year comes to a close, we have good reasons for hope. Hope for a more equitable future for Minnesota. For the possibility of moving good work for our LGBTQ+ communities and all of our rights. For the space to live in a little less fear, a little more joy.

Across the county, LGBTQ+ community members and organizers look to Minnesota as an example, as an image of hope. But we did not get here overnight.

It has taken decades of work to shift not only policy, but culture here at home. Thousands of community members come together every year to organize in their communities, celebrate with visible displays of Pride, share their stories, and advocate for safety for our community.

Because of this work, Minnesota has some of the strongest protections for the LGBTQ+ community—and some of the strongest champions advocating for our rights. We are holding the line against efforts to erase those protections because we have community members across the state advocating with us.

When you support OutFront Minnesota Community Services, you continue to support the culture shift to create a welcoming space for all Minnesotans. These gifts support our Anti-Violence Program, which provides a first point of contact for community members looking for help in Minnesota. Your gift supports our Educational Equity program, providing trainings and resources for educators and schools to create spaces of belonging for LGBTQ+ students and families. And you support our organizing efforts, ensuring that our community is prepared to succeed in the work ahead.
