Mission
The Autonomy Project is a grassroots nonprofit committed to building a world where LGBTQIA+, GSRM, BIPOC, neurodivergent individuals, and creatives are not just included but celebrated, protected, and empowered. Based in Columbus, Ohio, we create spaces where those pushed to the margins can find belonging, express themselves freely, and access the resources they need to thrive. Through community-led education, mutual aid, and transformative events, we challenge the systems that harm us and cultivate the ones that heal. Our work is grounded in radical care, accountability, and the belief that liberation is a collective act. In a world that often demands our silence, The Autonomy Project is where we raise our voices, lift each other up, and build something better together
