Equality Arizona is a non-profit organization made up of a 501(c)(3), the Equality Arizona Foundation; a 501(c)(4), Equality Arizona; and the Equality Arizona Political Action Committee. We use a variety of strategies to build the political and cultural power of LGBTQ Arizona.
We have successfully advocated for:
* Then-Governor Janet Napolitano’s Executive Order protecting state employees from workplace discrimination
* Recognition of domestic partnerships in the City of Phoenix
* A comprehensive civil rights ordinance in Scottsdale protecting city employees from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity
* Healthcare and family benefits for domestic partners of state employees and their children through an administrative rule change (a legislative repeal of these benefits has been ruled unconstitutional by a federal district court and a final decision is pending)
* Workplace non-discrimination protections based on gender identity for Phoenix city workers
* The expansion of Arizona State University’s nondiscrimination policy to include protections based on gender identity or expression, the first Arizona state agency and fourth public university nationwide to do so.
* The repeal of the "No Promo, Homo" law.
* The repeal of archaic laws criminalizing same-gender relationships
