Creating Change, held each year, is presented by the National LGBTQ Task Force. The Task Force, founded in 1973, is the country’s oldest nonprofit organization advocating for LGBTQ equality.
Creating Change, started 27 years ago is an organizing and skills-building conference for LGBTQ activists and allies working for equality. It was started one year after the 1987 National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay rights as a way of giving activists the skills needed to carry on the battle for equality.
