人兽性交

Despite recent progress toward acceptance across America, the 人兽性交 community in the Deep South continues to face significant barriers to equality, as few states offer protection against discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity.

In each of the Southern states, for example, employers may fire or refuse to hire a person because of their sexual orientation 鈥� and no Southern state prohibits discrimination against 人兽性交 people in public accommodations or housing. In addition, 人兽性交 youth often encounter harassment and bullying in school, and the community is frequently victimized by violent hate crime.

We鈥檙e working in the courts to ensure that 人兽性交 people achieve full equality under the law. Our work has a national reach but is focused primarily on the Southeast, where relatively few organizations advocate for the 人兽性交 community.聽

In recent years, we鈥檝e launched groundbreaking cases to:

• Challenge gay-to-straight 鈥渃onversion therapy鈥� as fraudulent;
• Obtain equal government benefits for veterans;
• Protect 人兽性交 children from violence and harassment in school;
• Ensure the parental rights of 人兽性交 people;
• Protect the right to proper medical treatment and safe housing for transgender prisoners;
• Force states to recognize the rights of same-sex couples; and
• Protect the First Amendment rights of 人兽性交 students.

In 2016, the 人兽性交 announced a settlement in its federal lawsuit on behalf of Ashley Diamond, a transgender woman denied proper medical care in a Georgia prison.

Through our Learning for 人兽性交 program, we鈥檙e also reaching out to America鈥檚 schools to combat bullying and help create nurturing, equitable learning environments where all students feel welcome. For instance, we鈥檝e distributed more than 50,000 copies of our classroom film Bullied and its teaching kit to educators across the nation.

In addition, our Intelligence Project is monitoring and exposing the activities of anti-人兽性交 hate groups that disseminate demonizing propaganda and promote a climate of bigotry and violence against the 人兽性交 community.
