João Pessoa app launches LGBTQIA+ microcredit information service

The municipal app João Pessoa na Palma da Mão now hosts details on the “Eu Posso Diversidade” micro‑credit line aimed at LGBTQIA+ residents. Users can download the app, register with name, address and CPF, and select the LGBT icon to view eligibility information and a chat box for assistance.

Required documentation includes RG, CPF status proof, proof of residence in João Pessoa and a negative certificate. Applicants submit these at the Coordenadoria de Promoção à Cidadania LGBT (Rua Diogo Velho, 150) for triage, after which they are forwarded to the Secretaria de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Trabalho (Sedest). The program, a partnership between Sedest and the Secretaria de Gestão Governamental, accepts applications through November. Further help is available via WhatsApp (83 99394‑3402).
