Roberta Dunn has forged a path for herself as a trusted leader and advocate for LGBT people in Charlotte. Yet, she says she never intended or planned on becoming an activist, Dunn simply couldn't help herself. After years of work in Charlotte's transgender and larger LGBT community, Dunn's activism was recognized by Equality North Carolina among the work of five other Carolina LGBT and straight ally leaders.

The Equality Champion Award, presented for the first time this year by Equality NC to six leaders across the state, seeks to recognize the hard work of community activists and advocates working for change in their local communities. Dunn received the Charlotte region Equality Champion Award for her work with local organizations and for successfully making important inroads with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
