Mission: Gais.es Nor Gays Inc. is an association of gay, lesbian, and bisexual
men and women in the Bay of Chaleur region and North-Eastern part
of New Brunswick. The goal of the association is to create a bond
among the gay, lesbian and bisexual community. The group believes
that such a network will help to break the loneliness and solitude with
which people are confronted. Knowing that friends and colleagues
exist mitigates the isolation resulting from the lack of services
available in this area. To achieve this, the association organizes
activities designed to involve the gay, lesbian and bisexual community
to create greater communication and participation and, in doing so,
strengthen the bond of the community.
Programs/Services: Gais.es Nor Gays Inc. has an Executive Council that is elected at an
annual general meeting. They operate a Bar in Petit-Rocher (GNG
Dance Club) and dances are held on specific dates listed on their
website. Dances are open to everyone 19 years of age and older. A
quarterly newsletter is mailed to association members to keep them
informed of news, activities and events. Gais.es Nor Gays Inc. holds
an annual Gay Pride Camping Weekend on Labour Day weekend as
well as other activities and events. The group has been in operation
for about 10 years.
Languages: Gais.es Nor Gays Inc. offers services in French and English.
