Who are we?
Oxnard LGBTQ+ Community
Oxnard LGBTQ+ Community
We are an organization of LGBTQ+ people whose goal is to create safe and affirming spaces for the community, whether in person or virtual. Our organization was created in 2012 by two LGBTQ+ youth from Oxnard, because they saw that there were no safe, diverse and local places for LGBTQ+ youth and decided to create them themselves.
In 2020, after a hiatus, Oxnard LGBTQ+ Community returned to support the "Black Lives Matter" movement and with the collaboration of local organizations and community members, we created the first annual LGBTQ+ Pride Parade and Festival to celebrate and advocate for LGBTQ+ people of color in OXNARD and surrounding areas.
Our organization continues to grow and develop more programs and events to support the community. For example, in 2022 we created the Spanish Parent Support Group and in 2024 we created the "Transition Mission" program that provides free clothing for the transgender or gender non-comforming community. Our vision is to continue evolving with the community.

We provide education and information for parents and loved ones of LGBTQ+ people. With the help of the Coalition for Family Harmony agency, we co-created a guide to provide basic information to everyone who wants to learn LGBTQ+ terminology, history and more. We also have virtual support groups for parents and connect youth with mentors to support their journey.
