The Queer Organizing Coalition was formed from the Southeast Tejaztlan region of MEXA. We are an organization committed to raising the consciousness of queer people of color. We believe in the commitment that comes with consciousness to move for change. In this way, our community will transform itself into a more inclusive and accepting society.
we plan on having fun and educational events. some might just be fun, some might just be educational and some might be both.
We'll keep you updated!
