Share Your Story About Family and Marriage

Right now, some groups are trying to roll back marriage equality and undermine protections for LGBTQ+ families by pushing limited ideas about what families can look like, or what kinds of families should have legal security.

Sharing personal stories can help people understand why these protections matter and why every family deserves recognition and security.

Whether you’re married, a parent, part of an LGBTQ+ family, or simply believe in fairness, your story can make a difference.

Join people across the country sharing their experiences:

“As a parent, I shouldn’t have to prove my relationship to my own child. My wife and I have had to carry extra documents just to show we’re both our kid’s parents.”

“I’m not married, but my best friends are. Their wedding was one of the happiest days of my life. Everyone deserves that joy.”

“Both of my parents raised me, but there were times when only one of them was recognized as my parent.”

“My family is just like any other, but the law didn’t always recognize us. When my dads were able to get married, it made us all feel safer.”
