Our History

Welcome to QXposure's blog! Our history began with the planning of a community forum in mid-2007. The goal of this ground-breaking community forum for Mississauga was to encourage resident and social service provider input into strengthening the voice of diverse Queer and Trans communities. Over 45 people gathered at the Burnamthorpe Library Theatre in Mississauga to engage a panel of Queer and Trans service providers (mostly servicing Toronto) and to participate in a community 'game' to discuss oppression, privilege and community change. A post-forum report will be posted online shortly and will contain summaries of the group discussions, contacts for the panelists, and future directions based on the recommendations of the forum participants.
