Stroock LGBTQ, our Affinity Group for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning and Allied Attorneys, aims to create a network for Stroock LGBTQ professionals and to promote a welcoming, diverse environment for the benefit of LGBTQQ attorneys, their allies and our firm as a whole. The group’s goal is to spread awareness and enhance LGBTQQ culture within our firm through LGBTQQ-specific CLEs, speakers and events. Stroock LGBTQ also focuses on community outreach through coordinated partnerships and sponsorships with other LGBTQQ groups, law schools and other interested organizations.

In the coming year, Stroock LGBTQ will spotlight issues that affect the broad spectrum of persons within the LGBTQQ community – including the legal issues involving HIV/AIDS, adoption, marriage and homeless youth, among others.
