QLatinx

QLatinx QLatinx is a grassroots racial, social, and gender justice organization dedicated to the advancement and empowerment of Orlando's LGBTQ+ Latinx community.

Founded in response to the mass shooting and act of hate that occurred on June 12th at Pulse nightclub, during the LGBTQ+ establishment’s Latinx-themed night, that robbed our community of 49 lives and left many more physically and psychologically wounded. QLatinx brought together members of the local community directly impacted by this tragedy to build a supportive infrastructure, address inequity

, and promote inclusionary practices for local leadership and partnering agencies. We honor the memory of the 49, nearly half were of Puerto Rican descent; while many more were Cuban, Dominican, Ecuadorian, Mexican, Salvadoran, Venezuelan, Afro-Latinx, and from other Latinx communities. Some were Black. Some were undocumented. Over half were under the age of 30, the youngest victims having just turned 18 years old.

Join us this Sunday from 10:00 AM–12:30 PM for our May One Wash at a Time. This Month we’ll be providing free wash-and-fold laundry support, detergent and soap supplies, clothing, food, fresh produce, and connections to additional community resources.

One Wash at a Time was created to support individuals and families across Central Florida by helping reduce barriers to basic needs through community care and direct support.

Whether you need support, want to connect with community, or simply need a welcoming space, we invite you to join us. Laundry assistance is available while resources last.

Today’s Inhala Exhala gathering with LJ was an invitation to pause, breathe deeply, and be present.

Through simple breathing exercises and grounding techniques, we explored ways to reconnect with ourselves in the middle of busy schedules and everyday stress.

Today on Voces Que Sanan: What does it look like to truly care for one another?

Healing justice and harm reduction are deeply connected. Both challenge stigma, center lived experience, and create space for people to make informed choices about their own lives. This work is not abstract—it is tangible, immediate, and rooted in survival and care.

Joined by Andres Acosta, we’re also launching our harm reduction website, chatbot, and resource hub—expanding access to tools like naloxone education, fentanyl test strip information, and safer use guidance. This is about ensuring that no one is left without support or information.

Someone in our community is carrying something heavy right now.

Maybe they’ve been told to pray it away. Maybe they’re afraid of what their family will think. Maybe they don’t know that therapy can be for them too — Q***r, Latinx, and Whole.

This is for them. This is for you.

Only 35% of Latinx adults with a mental illness receive treatment each year. That number tells us the system hasn’t shown up for us. But we show up for each other.

The myths say:
❌ Stay silent. Be strong. Handle it alone.

We say:
✅ Healing is not Linear. It is not Loud.
✅ It does not require you to have it all figured out.
✅ Healing belongs to you. It just requires you to Begin.

Today, on Earth Day, we came together through art, community, and intention. 🌍✨
Our Painting Earth activation brought people together to create, reflect, and celebrate the beauty and resilience of our planet. Side by side, we painted not just landscapes, but connection — to the earth and to each other.
In every color and brushstroke, there was joy, care, and a reminder that protecting our planet is a collective act. Just like community, the earth thrives when we show up for it — together. 🌱
Thank you to everyone who joined us, created with us, and helped make this space so special.
