Currently the queer populace of Flathead Valley is not very visible to allies in the community who wish to support them and we are operating on the premise that many cis-identified or allies have no access point to express support or declare their interest in the LGBTQIA+ community. In to alleviate this disconnect, we now have an established Community Resource Center where we host queer friendly events.

Many professions lack the appropriate vocabulary to interact with queer persons. We are working towards creating a directory of safe and appropriate health, mental health, and general business entities and services. Alongside the directory we offer sensitivity and best speaking practices to healthcare and business entities so they can grow positive relationships within our queer community.
