We're Hiring: Saskatchewan Regional Organizer
To support the Society of Queer Momentum’s advocacy efforts, we are hiring a part-time regional organizer in Saskatchewan. This organizer will support local advocacy efforts alongside partner organizations and peer activists across the province, with a focus on building support for 2SLGBTQIA+ rights and opposing anti-2SLGBTQIA+ laws, policies and political platforms.
Given the nearness of the next provincial election, this is a time-sensitive hiring opportunity that closes on Wednesday, July 3rd at 5PM CST. To apply, please submit a cover letter and resume to [email protected].
Preference will be given to trans/gender diverse individuals; Black, Indigenous and racialized queer and trans community members are encouraged to apply.

Recommended Assets and Experiences
In January, we launched a micro-grant program to help power-up grassroots advocacy and community building in Alberta, as part of our response to Premier Danielle Smith’s attack on the freedom, rights and healthcare access of transgender youth and their families. We received dozens of applications, reflecting the commitment, strength and creativity of 2SLGBTQIA+ advocates and allies across Alberta.
We are now thrilled to introduce you to the 12 projects we’re funding across the province.
Each group has it's own vision and unique flavour. Some are fully focused on activism and political advocacy, while others are focused on building inclusive spaces and fostering community care. The range of initiatives reflects something our communities have long known: it takes a village to build and sustain a movement. It takes protesting in the streets, and community spaces that foster queer joy and healing.
We're proud to play our part in sustaining vital advocacy and community building in Alberta.
Like all Canadians, we were shocked to learn of the horrific shooting in Tumbler Ridge. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all affected by this tragedy.
Queer Momentum joins Canadians from coast to coast to coast in condemning this appalling violence, which has no place in our schools or anywhere else in Canada.
We are mindful that news cycles can create fear and vulnerability. We reject any attempt to tie an entire community to the actions of one individual.
Our focus remains on the victims, their families and the community. We stand ready to assist our neighbours in Tumbler Ridge however we can.
