Since 1975, AT&T has been a proud ally of the LGBTQ+ community. The company was one of the first American corporations to adopt a policy prohibiting discrimination against their employees based on sexual orientation. HBO is the presenting sponsor and AT&T is the grand sponsor of Outfest, which is the leading organization that promotes LGBTQ equality by creating, sharing and protecting queer cinema. Outfest was founded by UCLA students in 1982.
