Who’s joining the HRC on the Road to Equality in SLC this Weekend?

chanson, August 8, 2011October 1, 2011

I just received word that the Human Rights Campaign — in cooperation with Equality Utah and the Utah Pride Center is organizing a number of fun events in Salt Lake City this coming weekend! For example, on Saturday afternoon, in the library, there will be a panel on supportive families and healthy communities and their impact on the lives of youth.

Are any of you planning to attend?

And, lest anyone imagine all of the fun stuff happens in Utah, I’m thinking of attending this denkfest here in Zrich.
