Join our Advocacy!
Resource Center advocates for the LGBTQIA+ community as well as all people impacted by HIV/AIDS. The Center’s advocacy takes many forms, from meeting with local and state lawmakers about issues important to the LGBTQIA+ and HIV/AIDS communities to working with local government, businesses and schools to make more inclusive environments. We also keep the community informed, and encourage grassroots advocacy to protect our rights.

When it comes to advocating for the LGBTQIA+ community as well as all people impacted by HIV/AIDS, it’s an important part of Resource Center’s past, present and future.

- Lead the efforts to get Dallas ISD to adopt a comprehensive anti-bullying policy.
-
- Rolled out the “OUT for Safe Schools” comprehensive LGBTQIA+ anti-bullying training with Dallas ISD and Uplift Education, reaching thousands of students across North Texas.
