The Welcoming Project
The Welcoming Project, Inc. is a 501c4 non-profit organization that encourages local businesses, organizations, and churches in Norman, Oklahoma and throughout the world to make LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) people feel welcome by displaying an "All Are Welcome" sign. Since the project began in March 2011, businesses, organizations, and churches displaying welcoming signs can be found in communities throughout the United States. All Welcoming Places are posted on our website: http://www.thewelcomingproject.org/maps.php

The Welcoming Project, Inc. also maintains an educational website (www.thewelcomingproject.org) designed to educate others about the LGBTQ community and show them how to support the LGBTQ community. The Welcoming Project, Inc. is also actively involved in LGBTQ activism in Oklahoma. The project was created by Meredith Worthen (an assistant professor in sociology at the University of Oklahoma) and Brian Eddins who is a realtor.
