About Family Equality
Founded in 1979, Family Equality's mission is to advance legal and lived equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) families and for those who wish to form them through building community, changing hearts and minds, and driving policy change.
We envision a future where all LGBTQ+ families, regardless of creation or composition, live in communities that recognize, respect, protect, and value them. We envision a world in which everyone has the right and should have the opportunity to form and sustain a loving family, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, religion, national origin, geography, socioeconomic status, disability, or the intersection of those characteristics. Finally, we envision systems of service and support that are free of discrimination and maximize opportunities for youth needing permanency and LGBTQ+ adults seeking family formation.
Core Values
Our values are the guiding tenets of our organization. They are timeless, enduring, and intrinsically important. Our core values support our vision, shape our culture, and reflect our identity. Our values reflect how we strive to go about our work and conduct ourselves.
- Pride – We celebrate LGBTQ+ identities, families, and communities as we create a better world for everyone.
- Advocacy – We leverage our power, networks, and resources to change the hearts and minds of others for the betterment of the LGBTQ+ community and our families.
- Diversity – We prioritize the presence, inclusion, and integration of perspectives and truths from all who share our purpose.
- Love – We advocate for the right to love and family.
- Courage – We are outspoken and act on what is right even when faced with discomfort, criticism, or the possibility of being humbled by a mistake.
- Collaboration – We work with individuals and organizations that share similar values to create a larger impact on common objectives rooted in equity and equality.
- Joy – We work to ensure that everyone, especially members of the LGBTQ+ community, has the opportunity to experience the joy of family.
Situation
In July 2024, following the departure of Jaymes Black, the Board of Directors appointed Board Co-Chair Alexis Kantor as Interim Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Ms. Kantor has suspended her board service until the transition to a new full-time CEO is complete, at which point, her term as Co-Chair will resume. The Board has since initiated this search for a new CEO to lead the organization into the future. This leadership transition is expected to be a turning point for an organization with tremendous potential for further growth and expansion of its policy and advocacy work and enhancement of its community and education programs impacting the lives of LGBTQ+ families across the US and beyond.
The incoming CEO will have the opportunity to significantly affect Family Equality's strategic direction and trajectory. In 2025, Family Equality intends to embark on a process to update its strategic plan to reflect evolving needs of queer families, ensuring its ability to most effectively leverage its resources, capacity, and partnerships to best fulfill its mission.
To lead this effort, the incoming CEO is expected to bring a vision for advancing equity through policy and advocacy and elevate the delivery of direct service programming. This new CEO will have the experience and skills to identify and communicate that vision, gain the trust of the Board, staff, and community stakeholders, and develop and execute the resulting strategic plan.
As Family Equality's capacity, priorities, and the needs of LGBTQ+ families continue to align, the organization is uniquely positioned to advance the equal recognition and protections of queer families through its Federal and State-level policy work, growing visibility, and coalition-building with Movement partners and the families it supports. This position is well understood and articulated by a Board of Directors eager to embrace and support a new leader intent on fostering innovation; inspiring and driving growth in revenue, policy, and impact; maintaining operational excellence; and strengthening capabilities and effectiveness while being a respected leader and collaborator. It is incumbent on the organization's executive leadership to maintain momentum and further entrench Family Equality's vision into the framework of the equality movement nationwide.
Success for the CEO will be predicated on their willingness to be hands-on, close to the work and the issues, and understand and be accountable for outcomes as they affect each and every family and organizational stakeholder.
Position Summary

The CEO is responsible for all financial, operational, administrative, policy, and advocacy aspects of the daily organizational management of the agency, including but not limited to fundraising, public relations, financial management, organizational development, and staffing. This executive leader liaises with national, state, regional, and local organizations and coordinates the contributions of diverse groups of board members, donors, staff, and allied organizations.
The CEO works under authority granted by the Board of Directors to define priorities, build and develop a strategic vision and objectives, implement a forthcoming Strategic Plan, and ensure programmatic and fiscal accountability, all in the interest of organizational growth.
Additionally, the CEO, with support from senior leadership and the Board of Directors, will be responsible for building and implementing Family Equality's next Strategic Plan, which, in part, will include:
