    About Us

    The National Education Association Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Caucus was founded in the 1980s by a handful of NEA Members seeking to provide a means of professional support for gay and lesbian colleagues.

    This website is designed to provide information and resources to the over 3 million members of the NEA who work each day to facilitate relevance and rigor to America's Public Schools.

    The NEA GLBTC works to provide educators, education support professionals, and students, with safe schools free of anti-GLBT bias and intolerance, and to provide sound education programs for all students.
