THE BILLYS

We are a heart-centered community woven together by shared values and by our shared experience as gay, bi, and queer men who are cis, trans, or gender nonconforming. We strive to be present and mindful with ourselves and each other and to foster:

• Compassion, generosity, honesty, and respect for ourselves and for others. 
• Responsibility for ourselves, to each other, and to our community, including those in need. 
• Personal expression and growth. 
• An environment conducive to our physical, emotional, and sexual health, safety, and well-being.  
• Diversity that embraces differences including race and ethnicity, class, age, body type, gender identity, HIV status, physical ability, education, and financial circumstances; we welcome gay, bisexual, and queer men who are cisgender, transgender, or gender nonconforming.
• The building of bridges to other communities that support our mission and share our values.
