A message from all of us at ALMA
The last few months have been marred with violent incidents primarily targeted at the LGBTQ community that resides in or visits the neighborhood of Lakeview. Such events remind us that we all are vulnerable to violence, hatred, and aggression, regardless of where we live, who we are, and where we come from. To that end, and as part of our mission, ALMA is committed to promoting and building a safe community for us all. Our ongoing participation in the Chicago LGBT Citywide Coalition is one of the several forums where we are involved in discussions about shaping policy and implementing plans to address violence, increase safety, and embrace cultural diversity. Thanks to our supporters for challenging and guiding us to continue the work we started more than twenty years ago.
