Equality Florida Action Center

Equality Florida is a grassroots, statewide human rights organization working on behalf of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people to secure equality and fairness, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.  Our top priorities are: ending Florida’s ban on gay and lesbian adoption, making schools safe for LGBT students, ending workplace discrimination, and gaining legal recognition for our families through domestic partnerships and equal access to legal protections only marriage can provide.

We have offices in St. Petersburg and Miami and provide a full-time lobbyist in Tallahassee during the legislative session.

We work with a network of volunteers across the state who meet monthly and work to educate and mobilize in their local communities.

All of our funding comes from individual donors and private foundations. Our work is only possible through your financial and volunteer support.
