HISTORY
There is a growing number of Latinos Gays, Lesbian, Bisexuals, and
Transgenders in Michigan. However, the various needs of this specific
growing population have not been addressed in a sensitive/appropriate
manner. In recognition of the need for such a group Midwest Aids Prevention
Project (MAPP) formed a group called "La Comunidad" in September
of 2000. In English it translates to "The Community." Since
the establishment of "La Comunidad" we have organized meetings,
health forums, dances and movie nights in the Metro Detroit area.
This year we are focusing on opening new chapters around Michigan
to organize more activities and make new friends. "La Comunidad"
does not discriminate! We welcome all races, religions, genders,
social classes and political preferences. SUPPORT US!
OUR MISSION
"La Comunidad" is a program created to provide information,
education, advocacy, support and social activities as well as foster
pride for the Latino Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender communities
of the Metro Detroit area.
LOOKING AHEAD
"La Comunidad" has started three chapters in Michigan. These
chapters have been established in Detroit, Lansing and Flint, and
we may work together to form one in Grand Rapids. We will be organizing
more activities for the Latino Communities in Michigan throughout
the year. |
