Local Partner Organizations

Athens Queer Collective We’re a small but mighty collective of local Athenians (Athens, GA) who are coming together to work toward building a stronger, more cohesive, and inclusive Athens queer community through education, outreach, community support, and advocacy. Until now, there hasn’t been a local Athens organization that addresses intersectionality in the queer community or provides ongoing resources and support. We offer a monthly LGBTQ+ Youth Group , a Queer/Trans Person of Color (QTPOC) Group, and an adult Trans Group.

Athens Pride   Athens Pride, Inc. exists to promote community, fellowship, and support around lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer issues in the greater Athens, GA area.
