HOSTED BY AT&T

The Forum will offer two independent event tracks in two different cities

Dallas, TX (July 22nd) & Atlanta, GA (July 26th)  

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to attend Out & Equal’s very first Southern States Forum in July—the official launch of our critical new initiative to harness the collective power of business and tackle LGBTQ workplace equality issues in the South.

Through two powerful full day events packed with content, the Southern States Forum will equip businesses and their leaders with vital tools and support in their efforts to advance LGBTQ workplace equality. Each day will feature: a panel of LGBTQ workplace equality experts, inspiring speakers, dynamic workshops, and a closing networking reception.
