Vision and goals

We have been working on the vision, goals and priorities for the City’s 2SLGBTQIA+ equity work.

What 2SLGBTQIA+ means

2SLGBTQIA+ stands for two-spirit (2S), lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual. We use a plus (+) at the end for the many identities and experiences that can fit within.

Our community partners often use this current version of the acronym. We know and understand that community language is always changing.

We believe

2SLGBTQIA+ community members deserve safety, dignity and opportunities. Our job is to make Minneapolis a welcoming place.
