National Coming Out Day Sunday October 11

National Coming Out Day 2009

It takes courage for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people to come out — to live openly and honestly in all aspects of life. It takes courage to come out as a straight supporter — to be a vocal advocate for LGBT equality.

It’s the courage to come out as an active voice for LGBT equality that will result in real political and social change. We can’t do this alone, but together we can make a difference.

Watch HRC’s Conversations From the Heart videos, donate your Facebook status and pledge to have conversations from the heart with your friends and family for equality. A simple conversation can change the lives of people you care about.
