Ten Things You Can Do to Be an LGBT Ally
- Teach your children that being lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) is simply another way people are made.
- Be sure to let LGBT family members know that you love them just as they are.
- Read and find out more about what it is really like to be LGBT in our society.
- Be open with others about having gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered friends and family. Secrecy breeds shame.
- Don’t tell anti-gay jokes.
- If you hear someone making an anti-gay comment or joke, let them know you love an LGBT person and you don’t agree or approve.
- Encourage open and honest discussion of LGBT issues in your home, workplace, and church.
- Write or email your elected officials to protest anti-gay legislation and to support pro-gay or equal rights legislation.
- Stand with those who believe that discrimination against anyone is a crime against humanity. Take a stand with PFLAG NYC.
- Join PFLAG NYC and support those who are working to end discrimination against LGBT people.
