MAP — independent think tank tracking LGBTQ+ equality laws state by state. Searchable equality maps. Relevant for parents whose kids face school discrimination — IEPs, bathroom access, sports participation, GSA suppression. Free initial intake calls usually last 30–60 min; have a timeline of events ready. School Title IX protections explicitly include LGBTQ+ students; harassment must be addressed by the school. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
