What We Do

We advance care by protecting people from harm and creating the conditions to flourish. Through advocacy—research, training, systems change, and storytelling—we help institutions strengthen how that care is delivered.

The Path to Becoming an Advocating Institution

Our work begins with the Institutional Continuum Survey, which identifies how care is currently practiced, where it breaks down, and who is left out. From there, we design and deliver training, strategy, and accountability mechanisms to move institutions Toward Pride.

Impact

“[Toward Pride was] really beneficial for having a better understanding of the ways that faith can impact LGBTQ+ folks and the reasons why we shouldn't ignore it.”
