GLAAD brings LGBTQ characters and plotlines to movie theaters, television sets and even comic books -- working with writers, producers and studios to ensure accurate and diverse representations of LGBTQ people on the big and small screens.

GLAAD works to share stories from the LGBTQ community in Spanish-language and Latinx media, helping to increase understanding and support among the Spanish-speaking community, the fastest-growing population in the country.

GLAAD is reshaping the way Americans see the transgender and gender non-conforming community, working through news, entertainment and online media to share stories of transgender people that build understanding and support.

Americans' attitudes and behavior on LGBTQ equality are not just influenced by what they see and hear, but who they know. GLAAD's Southern Stories initiative tells the stories of LGBTQ people and their allies in the South to create a cultural shift towards LGBTQ acceptance and understanding in the region.

GLAAD's Global Voices initiative aims to build LGBTQ acceptance across the globe by sharing stories of LGBTQ people and their families around the world and helping LGBTQ advocates build capacity for change in their own cities and countries.

GLAAD’s News Media & Rapid Response program works with print, broadcast, and online news sources to make headlines that build understanding and move LGBTQ acceptance forward. And when news outlets get it wrong, GLAAD responds to demand fairness and accuracy.
