52 new ways to secure family equality
Family Pride on Jan 8th 2007
As parents, prospective parents, and busy family members we know it is hard to find the time to do much of anything besides change diapers, pack lunches, go to softball games, and proofread homework. Nonetheless, our families have some needs that are paramount - health, happiness and safety.
We fundamentally believe that LGBTQ-headed families can achieve the recognition, respect, protection and celebration that our families deserve through visibility.
Yes, our families are busy. Yes, we have lots of commitments. But the health, happiness, and safety of our families come first. Family Pride is committed to making visibility doable for the time-challenged family. That is why we are re-launching the once-a-week way to advocate for family equality: 52 ways to be OUTSpoken. Download it and print it out. Hang it on the fridge. Make it a habit and make it fun - include the whole family.
Last year’s 52 ways to be OUTSpoken was a great success. We are happy to re-launch this tool in time for the New Year! The new 52 ways to be OUTSpoken reflects Family Pride’s reinvigorated commitment to inclusivity, social justice, and equality for all loving families (see previous blog).
Weekly advocacy suggestions range from ensuring that all forms in your school district read parent/guardian instead of mom/dad, to making family equality t-shirts with your family. With these small steps, we will affect great change!
