To advance full equality and civil rights for all the people of Alabama through education and action.

Equality Alabama was formed by a group of concerned citizens who agreed to merge the efforts of GALAA, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance of Alabama, EBaH, Equality Begins at Home of Central Alabama and various private citizens who became concerned with the anti-gay rhetoric from Alabama's increasingly conservative politicians.

Equality Alabama is open to any group or individual seeking full equality for every person in Alabama.
