Equality Federation

Equality Federation is an advocacy accelerator rooted in social justice, building power in our network of state-based lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) advocacy organizations. In 1997, these organizations came together to harness their collective knowledge and power. Since then, Equality Federation (Institute) has become the leading movement builder, national network, and strategic partner to our 40+ member organizations. Collectively, our member network mobilizes more than 2 million supporters across the country to advance equality and justice. From Equality Florida to Freedom Oklahoma to Basic Rights Oregon, we amplify the power of the state-based LGBTQ+ movement.
