Our Continued Fight for Freedom

Washington, DC is the epicenter of the United States’ fight for civil and human rights. Fighting for what is right is part of a Washingtonian’s DNA, and our capital city has a long history of being at the forefront of activism and dialogue surrounding equality, freedom, and progress.

With 36 national and international LGBTQ+ organizations headquartered in our city and neighboring jurisdictions, we have a unique opportunity to present a robust Human Rights Conference that will not only foster important dialogue, but inspire real action throughout the world.
