What is InterConnect?

 

 

 

InterConnect is a community of strength and hope. We value authenticity and finding our true selves in a world that tries so hard to change who we really are. We strive to be a place of belonging for everyone. We believe that different races, gender expressions, sexualities, and beliefs make us stronger as a community. Our purpose is connection and support. In the journey toward self-acceptance, we want to meet you wherever you are.

Our goal is to lift each other up and begin to imagine a brighter future for ourselves. We recognize that what brings us together is often a shared trauma perpetuated by the medical establishment and societal expectations of how our bodies should be. We’ve seen how coming together and sharing our experiences offers us the best chance of healing. Whether you’re an intersex person, parent, parent, or ally, we welcome you to our community.

We’re in this together.

InterConnect is committed to building a community for all intersex people, their families, and allies. A space where you are heard, valued, and embraced regardless of race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, socio-economic background, ability, experience, or perspective. A community where you can bring your whole self. We’re in this together, join us.

Our Mission:

InterConnect is a compassionate and affirming community of intersex individuals, family members and allies, working together to promote a better quality of life through connection, support, education and awareness.

Our Vision:

A world in which intersex individuals are celebrated as a natural variation of human biology, and all intersex people feel safe, seen and supported.

Our Values:

We value the journey of intersex people, their families and allies, who support our right to self-determination, dignity, and purpose.
