ABOUT
MISSION STATEMENT AND HISTORY
Mission Statement and History:
The Lower Shore LGBTQ Coalition was formed in May 2013 by several local agency workers and Salisbury University students after attending the Annual Conference, “Issues Impacting Mental Health of the LGBT Population”. The conference created an overwhelming awareness regarding the lack of resources and support on the Lower Shore of Maryland and the need to address this concern. In September 2014, The Lower Shore Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Queer/Questioning Coalition, Inc. was renamed and gained status as an incorporation.
Who We Are:
We are comprised of multicultural and diverse backgrounds including age, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity and religion. Members include individuals from local core service agencies, health departments, behavioral health agencies, staff and students from local colleges and universities, faith based communities and community members who support the mission.
