ACLU of Mississippi

Legal Aid & Advocacy · Mississippi · Free

State affiliate defending LGBTQ+ civil rights in Mississippi. Relevant for couples whose marriage rights may be contested or who need parentage protections across states. Initial consultations through Lambda Legal, ACLU, and NCLR are typically free and confidential. Bostock v. Clayton County (2020) made workplace LGBTQ+ discrimination illegal under federal Title VII — many people still don't know they're protected. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
