New Access to Resources for Our Members

July 17, 2013

You may have noticed a few changes lately at the Equality Federation – a new website, new member newsletter, new logo. We're working hard to elevate our brand so that we can better tell the story of the state-based movement for equality.

Even as we grow and work to create an expanded and improved image, we are still offering the same great resources that our members have come to count on -- just in a slightly different way.

We have deleted the "members only" section of our website, and we're asking that you reach out to us directly when you need resources and information.

Do you ever find yourself thinking, “How do I access Smartbrief to post a job?” or “Where can I see sample talking points on immigration?” We are still able to answer these important questions for you, but because we are constantly improving our resources, we encourage you to reach out to us directly when you need information or assistance.

We still have tons of resources available and ready to share with you, from sample board job descriptions to strategic plans. As we work to provide the best quality services for our members, we hope that you will reach out to us with personalized requests to help us provide you with tailored service. If you are already working with a Federation staff member, feel free to reach out to them with your requests. If you're not working with a member of our team, you can email me, and I’ll connect you with the right person.

We love hearing from you and look forward to offering you resources and answers to your questions.
