LGBT SUPPORTIVE RELIGIOUS OFFICIANT LIST - 20I4 At Equality Illinois, we work to promote a fair and unified Illi- nois where everyone is treated equally with dignity and respect and where all people live freely regardless of sexual orienta- tion, gender identity, or expression. We believe that everyone should have the same rights, responsibilities, and opportuni- ties afforded to them, and we envision a world where every loving, committed couple has the freedom to marry. Because of the hard work and commitment of our members and allies, we moved one step closer to achieving that vision when the Illinois legislature passed the Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act in 2013. With our newly-codified free- dom to marry in Illinois, many couples are planning to wed and some are looking to have a religious ceremony. Equality Illinois has assembled the following list of religious of- ficiants who are willing and able to perform same-gender wed- ding ceremonies. This list is organized by denomination, then by city, then by name of officiant. Please call the person listed as the best individual to contact for each officiant. If you, or someone you know, would like to be included on this list, please e-mail [email protected]. 2 | LGBT SUPPORTIVE RELIGIOUS OFFICIANT LIST - 2014 Who is the best person to Name of Officiant: Denomination: Congregation: City Address: contact about a ceremony?

    2012 Annual Report UUSC Advances Human Rights and Social Justice in the United States and Around the World

    Engagement, Innovation, and Impact UUSC 2012 Annual Report UUSC advances human rights and social justice in the United States and around the world. UUSC envisions a world free from oppression and injustice, where all can realize their full human rights. Global reach of UUSC’s human rights work 48 partner organizations in 21 countries THE AMERICAS AFRICA MIDDLE EAST ASIA Argentina Honduras Kenya Egypt Japan Bolivia Mexico Somalia Tunisia Myanmar Ecuador Nicaragua Tanzania Pakistan El Salvador Peru Uganda Philippines Guatemala United States Haiti UUSC works with a wide range of partner organizations throughout the world — bolstering workers’ rights, promoting the human right to water, defending civil liberties, and protecting rights in the midst of humanitarian crises. Want a comprehensive look at UUSC’s grassroots partners on the ground? Visit uusc.org/program_partners. 1 Dear Friends, When an organization has a huge budget, it can afford to waste a few dollars here and there without worrying that that profligacy will have a substantial impact on its mission. For an organization of UUSC’s size, however, every penny counts. That’s why we’re so proud we spend 87 cents of every dollar on programs. And it’s why we take the three themes of this annual report so seriously. First, engagement. We’re eager to use the people power at our disposal to optimize our effectiveness. Our members, most of whom are associated with Unitarian Universalist congregations, are natural born activists. They’re itching to get their hands dirty, be it on their computer keyboards taking online actions or by building an eco-village in Haiti.
