- National Coming Out Day - October 11, 2010
Contact: Joseph Rojas
Every Oct. 11, thousands of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people and allies celebrate National Coming Out Day. They hold workshops, speak-outs, rallies and other kinds of events all aimed at showing the public that LGBTQ people are everywhere. - Day of Silence - April 15, 2011
The National Day of Silence brings attention to anti-LGBT name-calling, bullying and harassment in schools. Each year the event has grown, and now hundreds of thousands of students participate to encourage schools and classmates to address the problem of anti-LGBT behavior. Founded in 1996, the Day of Silence has become the largest single student-led action towards creating safer schools for all, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. - 28th Annual GLMA Conference - Sept. 22-25, 2010
GLMA’s Annual Conference, the world’s largest gathering of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and allied healthcare professionals, offers continuing medical education (CME) credits, continuing education units (CEUs) and the opportunity to network and socialize with LGBT healthcare professionals and allies from across the United States, Canada, and from other countries.
