Make your voice heard. Become a part of change in South Carolina.

SC Equality brings the voices of LGBTQ people and allies to institutions of power in South Carolina, striving to create a state that is healthy, just, and fully equal for all LGBTQ South Carolinians.

We advance civil rights and social justice by inspiring, advocating, and mobilizing through an inclusive movement that works tirelessly on behalf of those we serve.

We’re fighting for full LGBTQ equality on multiple fronts: passing pro-equality legislation, electing pro-equality leaders, fighting for civil rights in the courtroom and reducing disparities in LGBTQ health and well-being. Will you join us?

Voting While Transgender South Carolina

Current voter ID laws present a unique obstacle to voting in local, state, and national elections for transgender and gender non-conforming (GNC) individuals.

Regardless of whether you have ever had trouble voting in the past, this year, voter ID laws may make it harder for many trans people to vote. Even if you have the required ID, the new laws may encourage additional scrutiny toward and bias against trans voters. It is important that every trans person takes steps now to make sure they can vote on Election Day. This was written to give all trans people the information they need to be able to cast their votes and to respond to possible problems at polling places.
