WE ARE OUR SPOT

OUR STORY

At Our Spot KC, we are a dedicated hub providing essential resources to support, advance, and equip LGBTQ+ individuals, ensuring the sustainability and growth of our community. What sets us apart is our commitment to allowing the communities we serve to shape our work—not our funding. This approach makes us distinct from mainstream organizations in the KC metro area.

 

Our mission is clear: to offer safe, accepting, and affirming programming, services, and resources that empower the LGBTQ+ community. We strive to build a world where everyone can feel valued, supported, and empowered to be their true selves.

OUR FOUNDER

Starting Our Spot was a deeply personal and transformative journey for me. For as long as I can remember, I yearned for a safe space—a place not just for myself, but for others who shared my experiences, struggles, and triumphs. I envisioned a community where people who looked like me, and who walked similar paths, could find solace and support.

​

 

Our Spot emerged from this profound need for connection and empowerment. It was created to be a hub for resources, dedicated to supporting, advancing, and equipping LGBTQ+ individuals. Our aim is to ensure the sustainability and growth of our community, providing the tools and opportunities necessary for each member to thrive.

​

 

Through the work at Our Spot, I have been able to experience the joys of community and witness the incredible impact of our efforts. Each success story and every life we touch reinforces the power of unity and the importance of our mission. Together, we are building a future where everyone can find their place and feel at home.
