Overview
This is an organization that will help raise awareness for the queer community of Kearney. We strive for the acceptance of sexual minorities and support the coexistence of queer individuals and straight individuals.
Queer Straight Alliance at University of Nebraska at Kearney started in the Fall of 2008. We started this organization to celebrate and welcome everyone’s individuality. We support homosexual people, bisexual people, transgender people, straight allies, and everyone in-between! The organization would like to make all people feel safe - regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity.
We participate on campus to raise LGBTQA awareness. We offer sexual orientation education and equality for all individuals. QSA also fights discrimination, harassment, and violence in schools.
