GLAAD — Media Advocacy

Discrimination & Civil Rights · New York · Free

GLAAD rewrites the script for LGBTQ+ acceptance, holding media accountable for fair representation. Relevant for parents whose kids face school discrimination — IEPs, bathroom access, sports participation, GSA suppression. Keep written records: dates, what was said, who witnessed it. Save texts, emails, voicemails. Healthcare discrimination is covered under ACA Section 1557 — providers receiving federal funds can't turn you away. Free, confidential, and open to anyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
