Indiana Equality

The mission of Indiana Equality is to secure basic rights for Indiana’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgendered (LGBT) citizens. Organized in 2003, Indiana Equality has two primary objectives – amending Indiana’s Civil Rights law to protect against discrimination based on either sexual orientation or gender identity, and ensuring that relationship protections for LGBT couples and families are not outlawed by an amendment to the State Constitution.

A coalition of LGBT, allied and progressive organizations from around the Hoosier state, Indiana Equality is also working with civil rights groups, LGBT organizations, and other partners to form regional steering committees across Indiana to represent their communities in this coordinated effort.

Membership in the Indiana Equality coalition is open to any LGBT organization or LGBT-friendly statewide ally organization that accepts the IE Statement of Principles.
