Deaf Queer Men Only
Deaf Queer Men Only (DQMO) is an international biannual conference for Deaf queer men.[1] DQMO was founded in San Francisco in 2008.[2] The mission of DQMO is to "provide a nurturing space for multicultural Deaf queer men to gather, build networks, share emotional support, and expand knowledge about civil rights, health, leadership and multicultural identities."[3][4]
The Deaf Lesbian Festival helped inspire the creation of DQMO.[5]
