MinneQ was born out of a desire to give back to the Minneapolis-St. Paul LGBTQ+ community. Everyone involved in MinneQ is an unpaid volunteer, and chooses to give their free time in service to the group. There are multiple ways to get involved as more than just a Member.
Moderators
Moderators are responsible for the primary management of the group. To learn more about becoming a Moderator and access the application, visit: Become a Moderator.
Helpers
Helpers are a significantly abridged role compared to Moderators. These individuals can help with anything that does not involve MinneQ logistics or moderation. We invite their help to plan and run events, create engagement in the server, and answer questions from newcomers. The time commitment for MinneQ Helper is 1-5 hours per week.

Hosts
MinneQ greatly appreciates and relies on Hosts for us to hold private events. To learn more about becoming a host and access the application, visit: Become a Host.
Board Members
The MinneQ Board is responsible for the long-term planning and vision of the group. Members of the Board do not necessarily involve themselves in the day-to-day management of the group.
MinneQ is a community-focused group, and our long-term sustainability depends on the culture and mission is passed down from one Leadership team to the next. To that end, we require every member of the MinneQ Board has served as a Moderator before being appointed to a Board position.
