About Us

Text that reads "NO HATE IN WASHINGTON" with "NO HATE" in large red letters and "IN WASHINGTON" in black.

NO HATE in WA State (formerly named Washington Families for Freedom) is a campaign of Washington parents, medical professionals, teachers, students and community members standing together against two harmful 2026 ballot initiatives that would endanger Washington students with invasive genital exams, forced LGBTQ+ outings, and restricted access to help when they need it most, exposing them to more hate, bullying, and harassment.

OUR MISSION

A young girl in a red sports jersey is crouching on a table, tying her white sneaker. Other children are visible in the background, and the setting appears to be a sports or gym environment.

We are a statewide campaign of parents, medical professionals, teachers, students, and community members saying no to hate, bullying, and harrassment in Washington State.

While Washington families are struggling to pay for food, housing, and health care, a mega-millionaire from California is spending millions on two poorly written initiatives (IL26-001, IL26-638). These poorly written initiatives that will threaten the safety of all Washington students, putting them at greater risk of harm at home and at school. 

Learn more about these initiatives.

Our Values

Washingtonians respect and care for each other. We may not always agree, but we work together to protect our children from hate, bullying, and harassment.
We believe every child should be free to be themselves, learn and grow, and feel safe at school.

Our schools should be safe, fair, respectful, and give every student their best chance to succeed. All students should be treated kindly, have their privacy protected, and be free from abuse. No group should be singled out for exclusion or discrimination in schools because of who they are, what they believe, or how they look.

Our Campaign

NO HATE in WA State’s leadership includes:

Together, we are working to uphold Washington’s belief in that everyone should be safe and treated fairly, and to ensure that schools remain places where all students can learn, grow, and thrive together.
