GLAAD — Media Advocacy

Discrimination & Civil Rights · Michigan · Free

GLAAD rewrites the script for LGBTQ+ acceptance, holding media accountable for fair representation. Useful for tenants denied housing or evicted because of sexual orientation, gender identity, or HIV status. EEOC for employment, HUD for housing, DOJ for hate crimes — separate agencies for separate domains. Documenting incidents in writing the same day they happen makes any later claim much stronger. Open at no cost to LGBTQ+ Michigan residents and the people supporting them.
