Our work

RESEARCH

LGBT Tech works to conduct research about LGBTQ+ individuals' adoption, use, trends, challenges and benefits around technology. Our research in combination with others conducting research about LGBTQ+ communities and technology is used to inform our education, resources and programs.

Programs

Our work isn't all educational or academic. The work we do through our PowerOn and PATHS programs help inspire and create tangible change for LGBTQ+ individuals and communities.

PowerOn is a first-of-a-kind program that distributes technology to homeless, isolated, and disadvantaged LGBTQ+ individuals across the country through our network of LGBTQ+ grantee organizations. 

PATHS is a program to inspire and motivate LGBTQ+ youth and young adults interested in careers in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) fields through storytelling by current LGBTQ+ STEAM professionals.
