Who are your LGBTQ+ heroes? We want to know!

We’re sure you know LGBTQ+ heroes in your hometown, and we want to know about them.

September is the month that LGBTQ Nation honors heroes in the community with the LGBTQ Nation Heroes program. Editors will nominate four people in each of nine categories as LGBTQ Nation heroes.

But we also want to know about Hometown Heroes, people who might not have made headlines yet. People you know who are inspiring you. People you know who are making their communities a better place. People who the rest of us have never heard of.

Get the Daily Brief The news you care about, reported on by the people who care about you.

If you know someone who should be recognized, fill out this nomination form by August 30, 2023. We’ll announce the winners in late September with profiles on the good work they’re doing.
