Eight of us took on Pinnacle on Saturday morning, and the heat took it right back. 🥾
Worth every step. Beautiful views in all directions, and I'm not only talking about the mountains.
Thanks to everyone who got out of bed for this one. More coming up this month, all of it at q***rar.org.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for game night last Friday! It was so good getting to see everyone, share some laughs, and enjoy a few games together. We really appreciate everyone who came out and made it a great night!

We’re honored and grateful to the Arkansas Times for sharing our story. What started as a simple idea has become a place where q***r men find friendship, belonging, and genuine connection.

In a world where loneliness is increasingly common, we’re proud to be building community and reminding people that they don’t have to navigate life alone.

A q***r men’s group in Arkansas is building a social network beyond the transactional world of dating apps.

We were proud to be at the state capitol this week advocating for HIV funding and justice reform. Federal funding has been slashed away and the state must step up in dollars. Also great information about HIV criminalization, which we will be tackling in the coming sessions.

A coalition of advocates are calling on Arkansas lawmakers to decriminalize the sexually transmitted disease and commit funding for prevention, treatment and education.

Last Friday we volunteered with the Utopia Empowerment Center, were we brought food donations, we brought our time, and we brought the manpower to pack and distribute boxes for people who really need it including q***r men and folks living with HIV/AIDS. Standing there packing those boxes, knowing they were going straight to someone’s table, hit different. It wasn’t just food. It was care. It was dignity. It was a reminder that someone sees you.

Nothing flashy. Just people showing up for other people. And in a world that can feel heavy sometimes, that matters more than we realize. We’re already looking forward to volunteering again.
