Lighthouse is a Black Queer-led, multiracial social justice organization that advances justice for Black LGBTQ+ people across Chicagoland through empowerment, education, and entertainment. We invite non-Black accomplices, interfaith partners, and secular service providers to support community organizing that builds a more equitable LGBTQ+ community.
Lighthouse Foundation (LF) was founded in 2019 and grew out of a community need observed by members of Lighthouse Church of Chicago UCC, a predominantly Black and Queer LBGTQIA+ affirming faith community. The Foundation has grown to include two branches: the Black Queer Caucus, which represents a cross-section of identities within the Chicagoland Black LGBTQ+ community, and the Coalition of Allies for Racial Equity (CARE), our community organizing arm.
