About the Equality and Opportunity Fund

The mission of the Equality and Opportunity Fund is to ensure justice and equality, prohibit arbitrary and discriminatory government action, and lift barriers that prevent people from participating fully in economic, social and political life. The fund concentrates on four core areas of equal opportunity advocacy:

  • racial justice
  • immigrant rights
  • lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) equality
  • gender justice

Within each of these fields, the fund supports efforts that highlight the shared interest that people of color, immigrants, women and LGBTQ people have in promoting equality and opportunity.

The Equality and Opportunity Fund also supports the Campaign for Black Male Achievement and the Neighborhood Stabilization Initiative, two targeted programs that address particularly pressing equity concerns.
