Our Campaigns

"OMC 365" is Out My Closet's dynamic social media campaign dedicated to reducing HIV stigma, with a particular focus on queer men of color. This initiative seeks to address and dismantle the harmful stereotypes and misinformation that disproportionately affect Black and Latino young gay men. According to the CDC, Black and Latino men who have sex with men accounted for 39% and 30% of new HIV diagnoses, respectively, in the United States in recent years. By sharing empowering stories, educational content, and providing resources, OMC 365 aims to create a supportive community, promote awareness, and foster an environment of acceptance and understanding. Join us in the fight to end HIV stigma and support the health and well-being of queer men of color.

"OMC TRANSFORM" is Out My Closet's inspiring social media campaign aimed at educating and empowering transgender youth. By sharing powerful stories of resilience and empowerment from transgender and gender non-conforming people of color, this initiative highlights the strength and courage of individuals with lived experiences. "OMC TRANSFORM" seeks to provide a platform for these voices, offering education, support, and visibility. Alarmingly, the Human Rights Campaign reports that in 2020, at least 44 transgender or gender non-conforming people, most of them transgender women of color, were violently killed in the U.S. Through these shared narratives, the campaign aims to build a more inclusive and understanding community, fostering acceptance and celebrating the diversity and resilience of transgender youth.

This campaign aims to create safer, more inclusive environments for LGBTQ students by promoting understanding, acceptance, and active support.
