A Note on the Sorting of the List: While organizations are listed by their locations in order, some may collect items focused on their regional location, and others may collect items from the national or international LGBTQIA+ community. Therefore, in each major section, organizations within each region are sorted in order of which are most locally focused to which focus further outward, starting first with those local to the Pacific Northwest, then moving alphabetically down the list.
