The ACLU works to ensure that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people can live openly without discrimination and enjoy equal rights, personal autonomy, and freedom of expression and association.

The LGBTQ Project fights discrimination and moves public opinion through the courts, legislatures and public education across five issue areas -- and beyond these areas, too:

  1. Relationships
  2. Youth and Schools
  3. Parenting
  4. Gender Identity and Expression and Discrimination in Employment
  5. Housing
