2024 State LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index Launch

For six years, the Out Leadership State LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index has measured each state’s record on LGBTQ+ equality across 22 LGBTQ-related data points to provide leaders with a business-lens roadmap of the entire country. The Climate Index equips CEOs with the information, tools, and guidance to prioritize the rights and well-being of their LGBTQ+ employees, customers, and neighbors.

With a rapidly changing cultural climate, and a political landscape poised to undo two decades of progress toward LGBTQ+ equality, this year’s Climate Index provides essential insight into the state of LGBTQ+ equality in the United States. The Climate Index includes updated policies and guidelines to assist companies in protecting their businesses, employees, and communities from discriminatory policies that discourage investment, stifle innovation, and disrupt talent.
