Workshop topics include:
*Someone I love is Gay
*Straight thinking about Gay marriage
*Understanding the underlying gender issues of homophobia and responding to anti-gay marriage
*Getting it Straight; what the research states about the LGBT community and outreach tips that
teachers/counselors/pastors/family members or friends should know
*The voice; the pain and the scream of the ex-gay movement
*Why is what they’re teaching so dangerous?  How should we respond?  How can we stop the suffering?
