About ALMA Chicago
ALMA Chicago is a leading LGBTQ service organization dedicated to providing support, resources, and advocacy for the Latinx and LGBTQ+ communities. Join us in our mission to create a more inclusive and accepting society.
Mission
Founded in 1989, in the midst of the AIDS epidemic, ALMA is rooted in advocating for the fair treatment and equality of the Latinx LGBTQ+ community. As Latinx and LGBTQ+ people, we are not a monolith, but our histories, accomplishments, struggles, and humanity unities us all in the fight for an equitable and more just society.
​
Our mission is simple: to fight for the rights of the Latinx Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, and gender-expansive community by advocating for fairness and equality, and affirming Latinx LGBTQ culture.
