About The Consortium of Higher Education LGBT Resource Professionals

We envision higher education environments where LGBTQ people, inclusive of all of our intersecting identities, are fully liberated.

The Consortium of Higher Education LGBT Resource Professionals is a member-based organization working towards the liberation of LGBTQ people in higher education. We support individuals who work on campuses to educate and support people of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities, as well as advocate for more inclusive policies and practices through an intersectional and racial justice framework.

We were officially born at the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force's Creating Change Conference in San Diego (November, 1997), but had already been working together on an informal basis for several years. In 2008, we changed our name from the National Consortium of Directors of LGBT Resources in Higher Education to better reflect our membership and mission.
