| LGBT Equality Day |
| WHERE: Capitol Building, Jefferson City |
| According to PROMO, over 200 attendees visited
the capital last year for LGBT Equality Day. PROMO encourages
you to attend this year so that you can talk to Missouri state
legislators face-to-face about the important issues facing
our community. You can also help protect us from discrimination
in the workplace and in public services by telling your elected
officials that your support the Missouri Nondiscrimination
Act (MONA) and help safeguard LGBT youth from bullying in
schools by voicing your support for PROMO's Safe Schools Bill.

Thanks to our grantor, the Unitarian Universalist Funding Program (UUFP), Fund for a Just Society for providing transportation to mid-Missouri residents to Jefferson City so that they can participate in PROMO's LGBT Equality Day!
