Many
of our earliest interns, staff and founding board members (e.g. Urvashi Vaid, Richard Burns and Cindy Rizzo) went on to become leaders in the LGBT movement. Which made me wonder
– where are all of our alumni now?
Haven’t been in touch recently? Are you in
the Boston area? Join us at our next GLADHour on Wednesday, February 27. Held three times a year, these happy hours for
fans of LGBTQ equality are the perfect opportunity to reconnect with GLAD and
meet some of our amazing supporters.
When
we started hosting these GLADHours several years ago, we wanted to create an
easy and fun way to engage with GLAD and we succeeded! Each GLADHour brings
together over 100 people of various ages, races, sexual orientations and
genders. Some have been long-time supporters and others are just learning who
we are. 
So
if it’s been awhile since you’ve been to a GLAD event, join us at the next GLADHour on February 27 at 6pm. Grab a drink,
enjoy free happy hour snacks (thanks to our friends at Reproductive Science
Center), say hello to some of our current staff and learn about GLAD’s
transgender advocacy from Jennifer L. Levi, Transgender Rights Project Director
and one of our nation's leading experts on transgender legal issues.
Are
you in touch with other GLAD alumni? Spread the word by inviting them to the Facebook event page. Tweet us a hello! @GLADLaw #GLADHour
