ConneQT NB is project that seeks to facilitate connection and collaboration between 2SLGBTQ+ organizations in the unceded territory of the Wabanaki Confederacy known as New Brunswick. ConneQT NB was established to address the needs of our diverse communities, to encourage dialogue, engagement, and cooperation, and to provide both organizations and individuals with opportunities to share knowledge, build community, and build capacity.
This project has been funded by Women and Gender Equality Canada.
