Over the past year, anti-LGBTQIA+ lawmakers introduced bill after bill targeting our community — from trans healthcare and access to public spaces to LGBTQIA+ books and representation in schools.

And we fought back. These bills didn’t become law. That didn’t happen by accident. It happened because LGBTQIA+ North Carolinians and our allies organized, spoke out, showed up, and refused to let our rights be taken without a fight. For 47 years, Equality NC has been building the power it takes to meet moments like this. And as we head into 2027 and beyond, we know the attacks aren’t stopping — so neither are we. When you give to our 47th Anniversary Campaign, you’re helping put organizers in communities, canvassers at doors, and advocates at the General Assembly fighting for a North Carolina where all of us can live freely and authentically. 47 years down. The fight continues. Join us: https://equalitync.org/fight/
