Trans & Queer Block Party (Mutual Aid in Action!)
Use this form to get connected with a group of mostly Trans & some Queer folks in Las Cruces N.M. who know that we thrive when our community has our backs!  Join us for community building, free lunch and snacks, meeting friends old and new, help accessing local support resources, learning activities, crafts, conversations, and community safety planning.  Many weeks we highlight local Trans and Queer folks who want to share their skills.  We center our marginalized younger folks but we welcome all ages. Join us for community of ALL AGES. Intergenerational community works! For everyone's comfort and safety, this is a sober space.
