When the lack of connection and collaboration across regions limited the sustainability and impact of 2SLGBTQI+ organizations, the vision of the Enchanté Network emerged as a collective response. The Enchanté Network was created to connect, support, and sustain a national ecosystem of thriving 2SLGBTQI+ organizations from coast to coast to coast.
2SLGBTQI+ organizations are often volunteer-led and suffer from a chronic lack of funding. Historically, these organizations have lacked the national infrastructure necessary to support and strengthen their frontline work. With the creation of the Enchanté Network, our members have gained a national champion who advocates for public policies that will ensure their frontline work is funded, innovative, and sustainable.
Since our founding general meeting in 2020, nearly 300 members have joined the Enchanté Network. It's clear that the days of working in silos are over, and 2SLGBTQI+ organizations are actively seeking ways to connect with one another and access the tailored supports that enable lasting impact.
2SLGBTQI+ organizations are not only here to stay, but to thrive. And we're just getting started!
