Cempa Q's mission is to engage, educate and empower LGBTQ+ individuals through inclusive and affirming healthcare.
Cempa Q was established in 2020 as part of Cempa’s Working Groups Initiative that works together with our Prevention and Outreach teams to create fun events and educational initiatives in our community. Each group, including Cempa ACT & Cempa LOI, focuses on a different culture and community in the Chattanooga area.
UPCOMING EVENTS
While in-person events were on pause in consideration of COVID-19, Cempa Q has new events in the works for 2021! Stay up to date with Cempa Q Events by following us on Facebook or visiting Cempa’s Community Calendar!
