Stacey Campfield and Rep. Bill Dunn,[6][7] and other public issues. It endorsed Nashville mayor Karl Dean for re-election in 2011.[8] In December 2015, TEP attempted to open an LGBT center in Maryville, the county seat of Blount County in partnership with local stakeholders, but this effort was ultimately unsuccessful.[9] The Project has received funds from the Human Rights Campaign[6][10] and has partnered with the California-based Courage Campaign to develop political advertising based on the life story of an LGBT Tennessee resident.[11] The organization is a member of the Equality Federation.[12] See also{{Portal|LGBT|Tennessee}}
