Our Vision
allgo envisions a just and equitable society that celebrates and nurtures vibrant queer people of color communities.
Our Mission
allgo nurtures and celebrates queer people of color by building, educating, and mobilizing communities toward a just and equitable society.
We do this through cultural arts, wellness, and social justice programming by: supporting artists and artistic expression within our diverse communities; promoting health within a wellness model; and mobilizing and building coalitions among groups marginalized by race/ethnicity, gender/gender identity, sexual orientation/sexual identity in order to enact change.

We value a positive, health-promoting work culture that is characterized by respect, consensus, and mutual accountability.

We value the protection and nurturance of our planet and accept responsibility for stewardship of resources for generations to come.
