WORKING FOR LGBTQ EQUAL RIGHTS

The Human Rights Campaign, the largest national lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) political organization, envisions an America where LGBTQ people are ensured of their basic equal rights -- and can be open, honest and safe at home, at work and in the community. HRC has more than 1,500,000 members, both LGBTQ and non-LGBTQ -- all committed to making this vision a reality.

With a national staff, volunteers and members throughout the country, HRC:

• lobbies the federal government on LGBTQ and HIV/AIDS issues
• educates the public
• participates in election campaigns
• organizes volunteers
• provides expertise and training at the state and local level
