Join us this Sunday as we host the Human Rights Campaign of the Deep South. Our speaker for the day will be Jordan Giddens.
The Human Rights Campaign has spent 40 years creating the most powerful movement for equality our country has ever seen. But despite this progress, our most marginalized are still suffering from violence, discrimination and fear. Our goal is to ensure that all LGBTQ+ people, and particularly those of us who are trans, people of color and HIV+, are treated as full and equal citizens within our movement, across our country and around the world.

Giddens (he/him/his) is a native Alabamian and Senior Organizer with the Human Rights Campaign, overseeing community outreach and engagement for Alabama and Mississippi.
