My name is Nat, and I am the interim coordinator of the Blossoming Project. As part of my role, I am leading consultations with LGBTQ2S+ individuals and community organizations across Québec to better understand their experiences and needs.

Using the insights gathered, I will create a report and a toolkit aimed at supporting community organizations in their work. This Fall, I will also be coordinating workshops and financial clinics.
