 LGBTIQ OUTREACH & LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

This new project was proposed by our LGBT members who are eager to raise awareness about "LGBT issues" in our diverse immigrant communities, promote rights, and support organizing and leadership development. In coordination with the project, NNIRR has also become a national partner with the Western States Center's "Uniting Communities" education program addressing LGBT issues among communities of color.
