LGBT Rights In Utah
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people in Utah experience some legal challenges which are not experienced by non-LGBT people. Same-sex sexual activity is legal in the state, but same-sex couples and the families that they head are ineligible for the protections that are available to opposite-sex couples. Most LGBT people in the state are protected against employment and housing discrimination. Most LGBT students in the state are protected against higher-education discrimination.
