SPONSORING FAMILY EQUALITY COUNCIL’S FAMILY WEEK THE POWER OF THE LGBT-HEADED FAMILY MARKET Ally Kuriloff Programs Associate

About Family Equality Council Family Equality Council connects, supports, and represents the one million parents in this country who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) and the two million children they are raising. We are changing attitudes and policies to ensure that all families are respected, loved, and celebrated – including families with parents who are LGBT. We are a community of parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren that reaches across this country. For 30 years we have raised our children and raised our voices toward fairness for all families.
