ActionLink empowers LGBTQ community centers and allies to drive meaningful policy changes, ensuring equality and protection for all.

Effective advocacy isn’t just about raising awareness; it’s about driving real, tangible change. In the quest for LGBTQ rights, having a unified voice and strategic support is crucial. That’s where ActionLink steps in. A dynamic nonpartisan initiative led by CenterLink, ActionLink partners with LGBTQ community centers and supportive organizations to amplify their voices in LGBTQ specific policy discussions and ensure their impact is felt across local, state, and national levels. By providing essential tools and resources, ActionLink empowers these centers to champion LGBTQ rights and advocate for meaningful change.

What is ActionLink?

ActionLink is a collaborative effort between LGBTQ community centers and supportive organizations aimed at advancing LGBTQ rights through effective advocacy. It offers comprehensive support to nonprofit centers, helping them navigate the complexities of policy work and make a significant impact without incurring additional costs.

How Does ActionLink Make an Impact?


ActionLink provides invaluable resources to LGBTQ centers, enabling them to engage in advocacy and policy work effectively. Here’s how they support these centers:

  1. Action Alerts: Receive timely updates on legislative issues with clear, actionable steps to take.
  2. Social MediaTools: Access ready-to-use graphics and posts to promote advocacy and raise awareness.
  3. Advocacy Guides: Get detailed instructions on lobbying, meeting with lawmakers, and engaging with decision-makers.

Why Advocacy Matters

For LGBTQ community centers, advocacy is crucial for advancing rights and driving systemic change.

ActionLink provides the resources and support necessary to ensure these centers can advocate effectively and bring about meaningful change.
