Advocacy
FSIX supports full LGBT equality in the workplace and in our society. While we do not endorse political candidates or participate in partisan politics or fundraising events, FSIX is pleased to support the important work of non-partisan advocates for social change. In Financial Services, these areas can include, but are not limited to:
- compensation and benefits
- equal treatment and respect in the workplace
- full equality of LGBT individuals in society
As a not-for-profit ourselves, FSIX support of these Community Partners includes co-hosting events appropriate to our membership, connecting members with volunteer opportunities, and publicizing relevant events to our membership. We encourage you to visit their sites for information and to learn more about their specific programs and services.

If your organization has already joined FSIX as a Community Partner and you wish to have a link to your site considered for this page, or discuss co-hosting an event, please contact the FSIX Board of Directors in your region, or nationally in New York.
Support is most readily considered for established organizations who provide needed services to the LGBT community, and whose objectives are most compatible with those of FSIX, our members and corporate sponsors.
We are pleased to recognize your valuable efforts and welcome your participation in FSIX.
