The Ad Hoc Task Force on Marriage Equality was formed by a group of concerned Coachella Valley residents and community leaders to promote marriage equality through action and education. 

The mission of the task force is to educate the GLBT community by providing information on Coachella Valley businesses that contributed to both the Yes on 8 and No on 8 campaigns.  In doing so, it is the goal of the Task Force to inspire the GLBT community to support those businesses that support marriage equality.

The Task Force will continue to promote actions and initiatives that further the goal of achieving marriage equality for the GLBT community.
