Fighting For Our Rights Combats Discrimination In 4 Areas
Fighting For Our Rights- (FFOR) files complaints to the Civil Rights Commission and the EEOC in local, state, across the country—expanding access to opportunity and democratic participation for all members of the LGBTQ community.
FFOR focuses on combating discrimination in four key areas: Healthcare, Employment, Public Accommodations, and Education.
Health Care: All patients should be able to access health care. We seek to ensure both that LGBTQ people are treated fairly in doctors’ offices and hospitals, and that LGBTQ people are treated fairly by healthcare insurers and administrators.
Employment: No one should be treated poorly because of who they are. Unfortunately, transgender and LGBTQ people experience high rates of workplace discrimination. Our company aims to ensure that they can apply for jobs, transition on the job without fear of being fired, and access employment benefits like employer-provided health care, free from discrimination.
Public Accommodations: Everyone should be able to access hotels, public transportation, public restrooms, and other public facilities on equal terms. Fighting For Our Rights seeks to break down barriers that keep transgender people from actively participating in public life.
Education: Our nation’s schools and colleges should treat all students respectfully. Our company aims to ensure that LGBTQ students are able to attend and complete their schooling free from discrimination.
