  2. Keep students informed about LGBTQIA+ job and internship opportunities in the legal field.
  3. Educate the law school community about LGBTQIA+ identities and experiences.
  4. Plan and host social, educational, political, and professional events to bring together the OUTLaws community; provide guidance to current students; encourage interaction with other LGBTQIA+ legal professionals; and promote inter-affinity group collaboration.
  5. Aid the recruitment and retention of LGBTQIA+ law students and professors.
  6. Facilitate connections between current OUTLaw members and OUTLaws alumni.
  7. Engage in political advocacy and community service in support of the LGBTQIA+ community.
