Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

Queer Power Alliance is rooted in the LGBTQIA+ community and in solidarity with other marginalized communities. We strive for equity by disrupting systems of oppression holding back LGBTQIA+ communities through advocating, educating, organizing, and building grassroots leadership for economic, housing, racial justice, and LGBTQIA+ liberation.

Activities or mission (Part I)

To build power among LGBTQIA communities and allies in Washington State to achieve economic, racial, and gender justice. We educate and advocate, build grassroots leadership and community organizing in solidarity with marginalized communities. Our work identifies commonalities within different racial, economic, and gendered communities and uses those intersections to make us all stronger as we fight for justice.

  • HOUSING JUSTICE PROGRAM: Safe, affordable housing is essential to collective well-being. LGBTQIA+ communities face disproportionate housing discrimination, economic barriers, and instability. We organize to protect renters, strengthen community leadership, and advance policies that ensure LGBTQIA+ people can secure and sustain safe homes. Queer Power Alliance advances housing justice by organizing renters, developing community leadership, and advocating for equitable housing policy. We work to strengthen tenant protections, expand access to affordable housing, and build collective power so LGBTQIA+ people can remain rooted in their communities. Through education, leadership development, and coordinated advocacy, we equip our communities with the knowledge and tools needed to protect their rights and shape housing systems toward equity and stability.

Our community data work is grounded in lived experience and shaped by, for, and with LGBTQIA+ communities. Through community-designed research and participatory analysis, we gather information that reflects real conditions and supports advocacy, policy change, and equitable resource allocation.
