Review for Straight Spouse Network Inc, Chicago, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

When my gxh came out of the closet 6 1/2 years ago, after almost 32 years of marriage, I was relieved to know that I was not the problem. Even so, when I found the Straight Spouse Network, I was helped through the process of grief and given so much support from others who had experienced this in their lives. I feel that I have friends all over because of the Straight Spouse Network. They have been a life saver for me.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the online support they give to one another.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

help to promote the acceptance of glbt.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

that I can connect with others who have shared this experience, and help others as they struggle through this.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

very helpful!!

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

reach many others who are struggling and help glbt be more accepted in our society.

Ways to make it better...

I was not feeling so alone, and in a fog.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

trying to reach more people in this situation.

One thing I'd also say is that...

the Straight Spouse Network is a life saver for all those dealing with a glbt coming out of the closet after being married.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Client Served & I have connected and shared my experiences with others for their support. I have met with others in the U.S. and Canada to share our experiences and give support to others.
