LGBTQ Outdoors: Our Name change
At LGBTQ Outdoors, our mission is to create a welcoming space for the entire LGBTQIA+ community to connect and explore the outdoors. To better reflect our inclusivity, we’re changing our name from LGBT+ Outdoors to LGBTQ Outdoors—honoring the queer community more explicitly. The plus sign will remain in our logo as a symbol that all identities are welcome. While the transition will take time, we’ve already updated our logo and launched LGBTQOutdoors.com
Thank you for growing with us as we build a more inclusive future—together.

In a time when many major companies are scaling back their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, the LGBTQ+ community faces increasing challenges. At LGBTQ Outdoors, we remain steadfast in our commitment to creating safe and inclusive outdoor spaces. Our Trailblazers Society—a dedicated group of monthly donors—plays a crucial role in sustaining this mission. Your consistent support helps us continue to empower LGBTQ+ individuals through nature, leadership, and community, especially when broader institutional support is waning. Join the Trailblazers Society today and stand with us in fostering belonging and resilience in the outdoors.
