About Fairness West Virginia
Fairness West Virginia is the statewide civil rights advocacy organization dedicated to advancing fair treatment and civil rights protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals across West Virginia. Based in Charleston, WV, Fairness works strategically to ensure LGBT people can live openly, honestly, and safely in all aspects of their lives—at home, at work, and throughout their communities. The organization focuses on comprehensive civil rights advocacy through legislative action, policy development, and community engagement. Their work encompasses gender policy initiatives, safe and healthy schools programming, and the promotion of local fairness ordinances that protect LGBT residents from discrimination. With an experienced leadership team led by Executive Director Andrew Schneider, who brings extensive civil rights expertise from prior roles with the ACLU, Fairness West Virginia combines professional advocacy with grassroots organizing. The organization's staff includes specialized professionals such as a Gender Policy Manager working directly with medical and education professionals to improve care and representation for the transgender community, and a Program Manager dedicated to creating safe and supportive school environments for all students. Fairness West Virginia operates as an inclusive organization open to everyone who believes in fundamental fairness, mobilizing diverse supporters to advance equality across the state.
