Our Story and Mission
Our goal is to provide full and comprehensive support and service to the LGBTQ+ community in southeastern Ohio. We initially began this process in December 2016, and held our first public meeting in January 2017, we were known as the Southeast Ohio LGBTQ+ Center. We were incorporated and became an official non-profit organization in February that year. We officially merged with the Southeastern Ohio LGBT Coalition on April 1st, 2018. We began the process of renaming to Southeastern Ohio Rainbow Alliance in September 2018.
We are now Southeastern Ohio Rainbow Alliance (SEORA). Please contact us by emailing board@seorainbow.org
