About Us

Our Mission

GLCCNV is the local affiliate of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. Our mission is focused on advancing the prosperity, equality, and inclusivity of Nevada’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and allied business community through referrals, education, networking, advocacy, business grants, certification, and supplier diversity opportunities. We are not a political nor a lobbying organization, and so we are unable to go beyond our core mission to weigh in on various non-business related matters that affect the general LGBTQ+ community at large.

PROSPERITY

We want to see all of our members thrive and flourish.         

EQUALITY

Ensuring that each member has an equal opportunity to find success.
