What is CMRA?

Capital Metropolitan Rainbow Alliance, Inc is a 501(c)(3)-certified non-profit organization formed in May 1977, which caters exclusively to the needs and interests of the metropolitan D.C. area Deaf Gays and Lesbians. CMRA is affiliated with the Rainbow Alliance of the Deaf and is one of their international Chapter (USA and Canada).

Officers and members

A seven-member Executive Board runs the organization. These seven officer positions are:

    1. President
    2. Vice President
    3. Secretary
    4. Treasurer
    5. Public Affairs
    6. Cultural Affairs
    7. Community Liaison

Activities

CMRA is mainly a social/cultural/educational organization. Fellowship and the need to stay in touch are very important to the area's Deaf Gays & Lesbians. Social outlets include the "coffeehouses" which offers a different/theme each time. One such coffeehouse may be a get-together at a local bar, another may be a beach outing. CMRA frequently hosts parties, both for fund raising and for plain simple fun.

If you have any suggestions or feedback, please feel free to send an e-mail to the webmaster.
Thank you.
