bullet Leather Leadership Conference 
LLC is an organization dedicated to strengthening the SM/Leather/Fetish community through the development of the leadership skills of community members and fostering a greater sense of connection between and within community groups.
 
bullet National Coalition for Sexual Freedom
NCSF is a national advocacy and lobbying organization promoting tolerance of sexual minorities and of those who engage in, write about, or study sexual minority practices among consenting adults. The NCSF constituency is broad and includes people of all orientations. Because research indicates that members of the SM-Leather-Fetish communities represent a significant percentage of the population (5%-10%) and experience significant discrimination as a result of their interests, NCSF has a specific commitment to this group.
 
bullet Welcome Home 
Vi Johnson, a noted speaker and Leather activist, seeks to create a "home" for the retiring Pansexual/Leather community in a warm accepting environment that will nurture an aging population with an alternative lifestyle.  WELCOME HOME also will be a place that encourage the next generation to stop for a while, visit with the "elders", and enjoy the facilities.
