We are all equally entitled to our human rights without discrimination. LGBT rights are human rights. International human rights law lays down obligations of Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.
The LGF partners with states, communities, and agencies to reduce the causes of poverty, increase the opportunity and economic security of individuals and families and revitalize communities. Our social service and community development programs work in a variety of ways to improve the lives of many.
