MMAA is at a pivotal moment. The decisions we make now about where and how we show up need to be guided by the people we serve.

That starts with listening to you.

As we recently shared, MMAA has entered an operational pause as we navigate financial constraints and plan for what comes next. It is a difficult moment, but also an important one. It gives us the chance to be thoughtful about how we move forward.

We are asking you to share your honest feedback on how MMAA is doing today and where you believe we are most needed right now.

👉 Take the 10-minute survey and help shape MMAA’s next chapter:

The survey will remain open for the next two weeks. Your input will directly inform our priorities over the coming year as we determine how best to support the LGBTQ+ military community moving forward.

Your voice truly matters in this process, and we are grateful you are part of it.

With appreciation,

Being at Creating Change reminded us just how powerful it is when our community comes together in the same space — to listen, learn, connect, and lift one another up. 💛
Spaces like this strengthen our movement, affirm who we are, and remind us that we’ve always been here — and we’re not going anywhere.

The Department of Defense has paused enlistment for people living with HIV — despite clear federal court rulings and decades of medical evidence showing they can serve safely and effectively.

Modern Military is calling on the DoD to reverse this decision and uphold the law.
Military readiness depends on qualified people, not outdated stigma.
