MJC LGBTQ+ Advocates Mission Statement

The MJC LGBTQ+ Advocates are dedicated to support the advancement and education for students, staff, faculty, and allies in accordance with MJC's Equity Plan, California Community Colleges Chancellor's office, and California State Law.

WHAT IS LGBTQ+?

LGBTQ+ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender — but the plus that is usually included after the acronym encompasses a list of other identities that fall under the queer umbrella. The "+" aims to include those who identify as queer, intersex, asexual, demisexual, non-binary, gender fluid, pansexual, polyamorous, questioning and many more.
