The Just As I Am Foundation is a resource, support, and advocacy organization for the African-American Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, and Transgender community to provide information on subjects of importance, to provide support to individuals and community projects, and to be the voice for the African-American Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, and Transgender community on issues confronting a lifestyle of equality.  Promoting unity between the African-American Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, and Transgender community and the general public, community organizations, government, and business is the ultimate goal of the Foundation. 

Just As I Am has major divisions that will assist with networking organizations on a national and international level.  The goal of JAIA is to assist organizations with their goals and visions and to link a deserving public to the services they provide.  JAIA will host an annual conference for all organizations and public to gather and discuss building a better community.

The major divisions of operations for JAIA are:

- Community & Philanthropy

- Health & Prevention

- Youth Outreach

- LGBT Diversity

- Legal Affairs

- Government, Business, and Media Affairs

 

We hope that we can count on each of you for supporting the organization that we developed for our community.  Take care of yourself and take care of each other.  "Because You Are Who You Are!"
