Together, we defeated President Trump, shifted the landscape for LGBTQ+ employees in the U.S. and around the globe, and made it safer for LGBTQ+ people to be out, proud and visible in schools, workplaces and communities. But the fight is far from over. From mobilizing 62+ million Equality Voters to turning the tide on anti-LGBTQ+ hate, we're focused on fighting for the liberation of all our people -- without exception and without leaving anybody behind.
HRC’s campaigns are focused on mobilizing those who envision a world strengthened by diversity, where our laws and society treat all people equally, including LGBTQ+ people and those who are multiply marginalized.

This school year, the Human Rights Campaign and the Human Rights Campaign Foundation–along with a supportive network of parents, educators and allies– are helping LGBTQ+ students everywhere proudly declare themselves ‘in attendance’ in their classroom settings. Amidst a national declaration of emergency due to an infuriating onslaught of discriminatory legislation, much of which directly targets LGBTQ+ youth, and efforts from extremist politicians attempting to erase and silence our voice and history, we are championing the academic success and overall well-being of LGBTQ+ students in the country.
