The Don't Say Gay Bill is a danger to homeless LGBTQ+ youths. AFC's Board Member, John Quinn of Kaplan and Hecker, was live on MSNBC talking about the case he's working on to block this harmful bill from becoming law in Florida.

On #lesbianvisibilityday we celebrate, honor and elevate this unique community of individuals who are historically overlooked by way of being both women and queer. When we have the fearlessness to stand with our sisters, we inadvertently help queer women find personal acceptance.
