NATIONAL CENTER FOR LESBIAN RIGHTS
06/22/09
San Francisco, CA
I have had experience with NCLR in multiple ways: 1) They successfully connected me with a Lesbian Attorney when I needed one in my area. 2) They were a sponsor for the QueerFamilies=HealthyFamilies Conference where I served on the steering committee and was a presenter. 3) I am currently working with them to address the anti-gay articles published by CAMFT in getting CAMFT, to apologize, make ammends, change their internal structure to better serve the needs of LGBT people. At all times they are professional and committed to serving the LGBT community and in their fight for our equal rights!
The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... In helping to put on the 1st Conference for professionals dedicated to educating mental health professionals about LGBT Parenting.
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... With NCLR's efforts and those of other organizations we will see LGBT gain full equality. I feel that energy when I am involved with their activities and functions.
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... Helpful, polite, professional, passionate and dedicated
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... Change the world for LGBT people everywhere!
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... They were great.
- If I ran this organization, I would... Want to tell everyone about us and what we do.
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... Obtaining enough funding to serve all the individuals that need assistance and to fund the campaign for Equal Rights for all LGBT people.
- One thing I'd also say is that... I am grateful that NCLR exists. It makes me feel safer in a society where I face prejudice and discrimination.
