Indianapolis PFLAG opposes HJR-6 (the Marriage Discrimination Amendment)
This proposed amendment would hurt all of the LGBT citizens in Indiana, as well as their families. Our goal is to ensure that HJR-6 does not get passed. We will work with other LGBT and Equality organizations to fight this harmful amendment. Not only does this amendment harm the LGBT community, it also will hurt business in Indiana. We will lose the best and the brightest. Companies will not want to relocate to Indiana. Please become educated. Talk to your friends and families about the harmful effects of HJR-6. NIX SIX!!!!

IYG Needs
The Indiana Youth Group (IYG) serves youth aged 12 to 21 who self-identify as gay, lesbian, transgender or questioning - and their allied friends. It offers a safe place to build self-confidence, explore individualism and develop friendships within a community that values fairness, acceptance, respect for diversity and equality.
They exist on "soft" money - grants and fund raising events. They have many needs that you might be able to help meet; everything from art supplies to dish towels to a 15-passenger van. Download their wish list (pdf file). At the bottom it explains how to contact them.
