The first priority of Equality UUCF is to promote a safe and welcoming environment for LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning/queer, intersex, asexual/ally and other) congregants through a variety of activities including social gatherings, groups and educational offerings. The second priority is to promote and support outreach to the LGBTQIA+ community as a whole, focusing on raising awareness of and advocacy for important legislative issues that directly affect the social standing of the LGBTQIA+ community. Equality UUCF may interact outside the UUCF community with other recognized religious and secular organizations that promote LGBTQIA+ equality and foster understanding. These organizations may include other UU congregations, UUs for Social Justice, People of Faith for Equality in Virginia, Equality Virginia, and PFLAG. In 1994, UUCF became a Unitarian Universalist Welcoming Congregation to support the welcoming and inclusion of LGBTQIA+ people in the life of the congregation.
