Change?
If not, NOW is the time! If you have attended the conference in the
past, we invite you to join us again. This year Creating Change is
21 years old and remains the largest and most diverse strategic
gathering of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT)
movement in the country. The conference takes place from Jan.
28-Feb. 1 in Denver, Colo., and we want you to join us!
The Family Equality Council’s trainings will be featured in the
Task Force’s Academy for Leadership and Action, a leadership
development and skill-building training program facilitated by
top-notch faculty. These high-level courses will be offered by
faculty, including those from Family Equality Council, with years
of know-how. The Family Equality Council is excited about bringing
its training expertise to the Academy for Leadership and Action
because, along with the more than 30 courses offered, it’s an
important opportunity to further build the sustainability,
leadership and skills of LGBT and allied activists and
organizations.
We are particularly excited about this year’s gathering because
Family Equality Council is offering its best and brightest content
and trainers to the Academy including:
- New Frontiers in Family-Centered Organizing: Lessons from
California’s No on Proposition 8 Campaign - Lifting Voices: Looking at LGBT Families of Color
The Family Equality Council is also sponsoring the 2nd annual
Family Institute at Creating Change. For more information on this
day-long workshop for LGBT parents and family advocates, contact
Nicole Bourgoin at nicole.bourgoin@familyequality.org.
This is the one and only time each year that more than 2,000 LGBT
rights advocates and allies meet up to strategize, mobilize (and,
of course, socialize) for LGBT equality, and we look forward to
seeing you there.
