Since 1978, GLAD Law’s bold litigation has achieved scores of precedent-setting victories on behalf of LGBTQ+ people and those living with HIV. A school community embraces a transgender teacher; a lesbian couple gets married in Texas; a gay teenager is treated with love by his foster family; a Ugandan activist gets asylum in the US; a worker living with HIV keeps his job. Because of GLAD Law. Each time GLAD Law argues a case or tackles an issue, we tear down more outdated laws and stereotypes that have denied LGBTQ+ people and people living with HIV basic protections and opportunities in every area of daily life. Through strategic litigation, public policy advocacy, and education, GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD Law) works in New England and nationally to create a just society free of discrimination based on gender identity and expression, HIV status, and sexual orientation. GLAD Law is committed to fulfilling this mission with urgency and perseverance.
