Welfare Warriors, a project of Queers for Economic
Justice, is a group
of
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans & Gender Nonconforming
(LGBTGNC) people
who
have experience with poverty. We organize to make the
welfare system
accountable to low-income LGBTGNC people and to
improve the benefits
available for all low-income people. Through direct
action, community
education, and coalition building with other
progressive organizations,
we
seek to empower our communities and to connect our
struggle for welfare
rights to larger struggles for social justice.
