Join a committee

Equality New York’s state-wide policy platform focuses on five (5) key domains that affect LGBTQI individuals disproportionately in New York State. In each domain we have identified different statewide strategies that include legislation and budget items that will lead to advancing the lives of all LGBTQI New Yorkers and their families.

Bodily Autonomy & Reproductive Justice 

Disability Justice, Physical & Mental Health

Racial Justice

Transgender, Gender Non-Conforming, & Non-Binary Equity 

Youth, Families & Aging Communities

Advocacy. Community. Coalition Building

Become a change maker

Our Advocacy Institute provides the education and resources needed to help build the leadership of all LGBTQI+ New Yorkers and allies. 

The goal of the program is for individuals to identify local challenges in their community and create solutions through developing programs, community building, and policy change.


Build A more Equitable Nonprofit Sector

Equality New York’s LGBTQI+ Local Capacity Building Program trains and supports small to medium sized organizations throughout New York State. Local leaders and organizations know their communities’ needs. 

The goal is to provide them with the expertise and infrastructure to serve their communities through effective programming, advocacy, and funding.
