LIU Dear Friend: As New York City’s newly elected Comptroller, I am committed to remaining a powerful voice of support for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. I pledge to continue my advocacy on marriage equality, corporate adoption of the Equality Principles, the Dignity for All Students Act, and strengthening transgender civil rights. Our “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Directory” is the only resource of its kind in New York and I am proud to present this year’s edition. This year’s “LGBT Directory” features updates of several hundred carefully organized, comprehensive listings, many with websites and e-mail addresses. You’ll fi nd a wide range of community organizations, health care facilities, counseling and support groups, recreational and cultural opportunities, houses of worship, arts and creative organizations, and many other vital resources and contacts throughout the fi ve boroughs and beyond. As your Comptroller, I look forward to working with you to make our City an even fairer and more just place to live, work and visit. If you have questions or comments, please contact Alan Fleishman at [email protected] or (212) 669-2697. Whether you consult the “LGBT Directory” in book form or online at http://www.comptroller.nyc.gov/lgbt, I am sure you will return many times to consult this popular and useful resource.

    G T Being brave doesn’t mean that you’re not scared. It means that if you are scared, you do the thing you’re afraid of anyway. Coming out and living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or supportive straight person is an act of bravery and authenticity. Whether it’s for the first time ever, or for the first time today, coming out may be the most important thing you will do all day. Talk about it. TABLE OF CONTENTS 2 Welcome 3 Being Open with Yourself 4 Deciding to Tell Others 6 Making a Coming Out Plan 8 Having the Conversations 10 The Coming Out Continuum 12 Telling Family Members 14 Living Openly on Your Terms 15 Ten Things Every American Ought to Know 16 Reference: Glossary of Terms 18 Reference: Myths & Facts About LGBT People 19 Reference: Additional Resources 21 A Message From HRC President Joe Solmonese There is no one right or wrong way to come out. It’s a lifelong process of being ever more open and true with yourself and others — done in your own way and in your own time. WELCOME esbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans Lare sons and daughters, doctors and lawyers, teachers and construction workers. We serve in Congress, protect our country on the front lines and contribute to the well-being of the nation at every level. In all that diversity, we have one thing in common: We each make deeply personal decisions to be open about who we are with ourselves and others — even when it isn’t easy.

The name has been synonymous with Chicago for decades, during the 21 years Richard J. served as mayor, and during the 21 years his son, Richard M., has been the leader of the city. The Daley era, however, is set to end May 16, 2011, when a new mayor is crowned, and Daley retires. At that point, Daley will have served the city 22 years and 22 days, while his father made it to 21 years and eight HOWARD BROWN months. Daley sat down recently with Windy City Times to discuss his MOVING AHEAD relationship to the city’s LGBT community. Daley’s bold and brash style has angered some, pleased others, and PAGE 6 overall helped lead Chicago out of the Council Wars of the 1980s and into a more civil city of the 1990s and 2000s. But not all has been perfect, with critics upset over his handling of education, crime, police brutality and, especially in recent years, the selling off of valuable city assets, such as parking meters, and using those revenues for short-term gain. Turn to page 8 PATTI LUPONE Photo by Hal Baim PAGE 24 Ricky situation Gay Texas councilman reflects on speech, bullying BY ROSS FORMAN The legacy of gay teen Zach Harrington—who committed suicide as a result of anti-gay bullying—lives on through Joel Burns’ words, his emotional comments on a Tuesday night in October in Fort Worth, Texas, some 185 miles south of where Harrington lived.
