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.

JAIA are:

care of yourself and take care of each other. "Because You Are Who You
Are!"
