Lavender Rights Project

Elevating the power, autonomy, & leadership of Black intersex & gender diverse communities

Our organization disrupts oppressive systems that target Black gender diverse and intersex communities of color and lead to disproportionate levels of poverty, housing disparities, and gender-based violence, especially among Black and Indigenous people.

Early giving for GiveBIG opens today, April 28, and this moment belongs to all of us.

For the past decade, Lavender Rights Project has grown because community chose to believe in something bigger: safety rooted in care, justice shaped by those most impacted, and a future where our people can live with dignity and power.

Every program we’ve launched, every life we’ve supported, every barrier we’ve challenged, and every milestone we’ve reached has been possible because people like you showed up.

Ten years of movement-building.
Ten years of showing what’s possible.
Ten years of choosing each other again and again.

Now, the next chapter begins.

Skip the day-of rush and make your impact early. Be part of what comes next through housing, advocacy, legal support, organizing, and the fight for collective freedom.

Give Big 10.
$10. $100. $1,000.

Whatever your version of 10 looks like, it matters.
Give today. Celebrate with us. Build the future with us.

Transgender Day of Visibility arrives in a moment where visibility is both a celebration and a battleground.

At Lavender Rights Project, we are clear: visibility has never just been about being seen. It is about being safe. It is about being resourced. It is about being able to exist without negotiation.

Happy TDOV 🏳️‍⚧️⚧️✊🏾

WE ARE LRP. 🎥✨

This is more than a video.
It’s a declaration.

We are the ones who shake the narrative.
Who organize for what lasts.
Who fight where it counts.
Who protect our people — not just in theory, but in practice.

At Lavender Rights Project, we build housing.
We advance policy.
We defend against surveillance and criminalization.
We tell the truth about Black, Indigenous, intersex, trans, and gender-diverse communities — because stories shape the material conditions we live in.

This updated We Are LRP video reflects who we are right now:
Rooted.
Strategic.
Unapologetic.
Still building.

Our brilliance has always outpaced the limitations placed on us. And we’re not waiting for permission to build what comes next.

Press play.
Learn who we are.
See what we’re building.
And understand why the work belongs to you, too.
