- Educate and enable businesses in Montgomery County to recognize the benefits of inclusive and equal workplaces and how to adopt policy and culture shifts needed to attract, welcome, and support LGBTQ+ professionals and customers.
- Being the leading voice in Montgomery County advocating for the interests and protections of LGBTQ+ owned and operated businesses, LGBTQ+ workers, and customers.
- Support regional, national, and global networks of the LGBTQ+ community through the exploration of best practices, continual training, professional development and advocacy for our leadership and community.
- Partnering with local business & commerce, legislative and government, social & nonprofit, and educational leaders to advance our mission.
