Advancing and protecting the civil rights of our State’s lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender citizens and their families
Mission
Our mission is to promote and sustain the equality of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender persons in the state of Tennessee through the establishment of fair and equitable laws protecting these rights and the elimination of laws that would seek to counter this effort. Equality is meant to include the protection of human and civil rights and the elimination of prejudice and discrimination.
