Who We Are
We are a coalition of Minnesota students, educators, families, community members, and organizations working within the broad context of schools to address the issues of sexual orientation and gender identity/expression.
MnSOC Vision: To create healthy learning environments that are inclusive, supportive, safe, and where dual orientation and gender identity / expressions are respected.
