About Embrace Monroe
Monroe, MI LGBTQ+ Community
Our local 501(c)(3) LGBTQ group focuses on four key areas – social, support, events and visibility – to improve the quality of life for kind people everywhere, but especially those lesbian, gay, bi, trans and queer folks in our community.
It’s also a group that wants to create a great awareness for our allies as well – regardless of their personal orientations and looking out for all minorities that feel they are overlooked and not heard. Below you’ll find some various areas we engage in so we can meet our groups goals.

Donations Make This Possible
We’re not all in the same boat, but we’re all in the same storm. Embrace Monroe is here to help you weather the storm and to keep you as safe as possible. At least that’s one of our goals.
Our other purpose is to create places and events around the area where you feel comfortable and joyful. We do this with our various events and meet-ups that we hold monthly or yearly.
While our end goal is to have a place to call our very own we’re happy that businesses and people around Monroe are opening their hearts and their doors so we have a place to gather. So please consider supporting not only our donation drive here, but also those businesses that have our backs by becoming their patrons too.
While our end goal is to have a place to call our very own, we’re happy that businesses and people around Monroe are providing us a place to gather.

To say your support is appreciated is an understatement.

Social
Interacting with the community is one of the best ways to form strong relationships regardless of orientation. Our goal is to create a group that’s safe for Monroe’s LGBTQ+ community and their loved ones while also providing fun ways to get together.
Support
One problem that many people in the LGBTQ+ community face is a feeling of being alone. That’s why we meet each month to discuss ways to make our group better and to discuss anything that’s on our minds.
Events
Since 2020 Embrace has hosted Monroe’s Pride Event but that’s not all we do. There are lots of other fun activities we host. Plus, if you’re a business, we’re always seeking donations for our events throughout the year.
Visibility
For decades people in the LGBTQ+ community have lived in the shadows but the truth is we are everywhere. Our goal is to not just be seen by the local community but to also be embraced as productive members of our society with value and worth.
