While the national focus remains on the mistreatment of gay people in schools, the reality is that LGBT families also face hostility in various settings'professional, recreational, and social. This is especially evident in rural communities, where the majority of LGBT families live, isolated from support networks more commonly found in urban spaces. Family Pride is the first book for queer parents, families, and allies that emphasizes community safety. Drawing on his years as a dedicated community activist and on the experiences of LGBT parents, Michael Shelton offers concrete strategies that LGBT families can use to intervene in and resolve difficult community issues, teach their children resiliency skills, and find safe and respectful programs for their children. 520 Presents advice for LGBT families on how to provide safety for their family members, resolve community issues involving discrimination, and place their children in programs that will be respectful of their differences. 538 Requires Boundless App. 588 Description based on print version record. 650 0 Gay parents|zUnited States. 650 0 Gay couples|xFamily relationships|zUnited States. 650 0 Lesbian couples|xFamily relationships|zUnited States. 650 0 Parent and child|zUnited States. 650 0 Families|zUnited States. 650 0 Gay rights|zUnited States. 650 0 Homophobia|zUnited States|xPsychological aspects. 650 7 Families.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 Gay parents.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00939200 650 7 Gay rights.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00939213 650 7 Homophobia|xPsychological aspects.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00959732 650 7 Lesbian couples|xFamily relationships.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00996476 650 7 Parent and child.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01053308 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aShelton, Michael, 1965-|tFamily pride |dBoston : Beacon Press, c2013|z9780807001974|w(DLC) 2012023715|w(OCoLC)769425646 830 0 Queer action/queer ideas. 856 40 |uhttps://naper.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0011121307|zFound on Boundless
