Grassroots organizers across the South are doing heroic work to create equality. And every day, we hear powerful stories about how the South is changing and support for equality is growing.
We ask you to take action with us as we build a new South.
Take the Pledge: Support LGBTQ+ Equality in the South
Join us in the long-term work to win equality – both legal and lived – for LGBTQ+ Southerners! Tell us you’re with us by adding your name and email address, and we’ll keep you updated on how you can help tell a new story of the South.
Donate to CSE
Since launching in 2011, the Campaign for Southern Equality (CSE) has worked for full LGBTQ+ equality – both legal and lived – across the South. Despite the progress we’ve made, the reality is that LGBTQ Southerners continue to face discrimination every day. We’re working to change that. Your gift makes our work possible.
Volunteer with CSE
We have volunteer opportunities ranging from staffing community events, educating & registering voters, attending issue-based community phone banks, and other various opportunities that may arise.
Creating change in the South takes a team effort. With your help, we can secure both lived and legal equality for LGBTQ Southerners.
Register to Vote
The Campaign for Southern Equality is all about turning out the vote across the South, which is why we’re registering voters in the build up to critical local, state and federal elections.
Get Involved: Join a State Coalition
Learn more about how we’ve teamed up with partners across the country to help LGBTQ-inclusive protections across the South. As we continue to demand justice and protections for our LGBTQ+ Southerners, we are making sure that our communities are ready to take action.
Submit a Provider to CSE’s Trans in the South Guide
Are you a trans-affirming medical or legal professional, or do you know of an affirming service provider based in the South? Help grow the guide to ensure our loved ones have the services they need to survive and to thrive.
Attend a Queer Artist Meetup with Southern Equality Studios
Southern Equality Studios has works to create a spaces for queer Southern artists to gather and connect. Topics range from how social distancing affects your art to how to monetize your creative skills. If you’re a queer artist or creative in the South, join us for weekly discussions and tutorials.
