Teach LGBT NY
Teach LGBT NY is a statewide initiative of the LGBT Network that is working to mandate the NYS Education Department to provide education instruction on the political, economic, and social contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people. Teach LGBT NY will shine the light on LGBT heroes who helped our society progress, but who have been ignored by the history books because of their sexual orientation and gender identity. Teach LGBT NY will show LGBT students all across New York that there are other people just like them who have persisted and fought to achieve equality and justice, and this will give hope to these students to continue to make history.
