Equality Florida is the largest civil rights organization dedicated to securing full equality for Florida’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community. We're changing Florida through lobbying, grassroots organizing, education, and coalition building — so that no one suffers harassment or discrimination on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity or expression. Our key areas of work include:
Public Policy & Community Organizing: As the only LGBTQ organization with a full-time presence in the State Capitol, we work to educate Floridians on the benefits of pro-equality bills and policies and the dangers of anti-LGBTQ legislation.
Safe & Healthy Schools and Parenting with Pride: We work closely with districts in implementing comprehensive best practices and policies to support and affirm LGBTQ students in Florida’s 3-million-student school system. We also provide parents with the resources they need to support their LGBTQ children.
Transgender Community Advocacy & Education: We’re the leading voice in representing and supporting Florida’s transgender community through diversity training, advocacy, and resource provisions.
HIV Advocacy & Education: Our goal is to curb the rate of new HIV transmissions in Florida and end HIV stigma through statewide public education campaigns and policy work designed to modernize HIV-specific laws.
Equality Means Business: To improve Florida’s reputation as a welcoming place to live, work, and visit, we highlight pro-equality businesses that have adopted comprehensive nondiscrimination policies and have demonstrated their commitment to valuing and proactively including all employees.
Healthcare Equity: We partner with healthcare and mental health facilities to ensure they provide the compassion and sensitivity that LGBTQ patients deserve by advocating for inclusive policies and increasing cultural competence among healthcare providers.
Reproductive Rights: Equality Florida has been a pro-choice organization since our founding – we know that these fights are deeply intertwined. We're a proud founding partner of Floridians Protecting Freedom and serve on the statewide advisory board.
Since our founding in 1997, we’ve become one of the largest statewide LGBTQ groups in the country with more than 300,000 supporters, more than 1,000 volunteers, and staff located in major Florida cities to organize and support our work.
Extraordinary Charities' mission is to equip and empower smaller nonprofit organizations in Palm Beach County by providing shared physical resources, financial support, and through developing and deploying strategic partnerships among organizations. Our vision is to create a community-wide awareness of the impact of smaller nonprofit organizations in Palm Beach County.
