Community Voices of Marriage Equality USA

When we talk about "Community Voices" in Marriage Equality USA, we include the members of the LGBTIQ community at-large and our families, friends, allies. We have volunteer leaders who serve the organization as Community Liaisons -- they serve as human bridges between our organizational leadership and particular segments of our larger community. We also want to share some of the stories of the people in our community and let you know how their lives are directly affected by not having access to civil marriage. Hence, our "Real People, Real Impact" section.
