The National Black Justice Collective (NBJC) is a national non-profit focused on civil rights for Black LGBTQ/SGL people, including those living with HIV/AIDS. Its work centers on advancing federal public policy to end racism, homophobia, and LGBTQ/SGL bias, bridging the gaps between racial justice and LGBTQ/SGL equality, and empowering Black families and communities to participate openly and safely in faith, family, and civic life. Based in Washington, D.C., NBJC operates with a small team and has positioned itself as a leading advocate at the intersection of Black civil rights and LGBTQ/SGL rights, emphasizing those needs that are often overlooked within broader movements. The organization has a history of collaborative leadership with national civil rights groups and LGBTQ/SGL organizations, and it pursues ongoing initiatives and programming to advance policy change and awareness. A recent development includes continuing public-facing events and programs, such as hosting award ceremonies and launching media initiatives, to elevate issues affecting Black LGBTQ/SGL communities.
