2016 Annual Report | 1 HEARTLAND ALLIANCE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 1 EQUITY. OPPORTUNITY. FOR ALL. 2016 HEARTLAND ALLIANCE ANNUAL REPORT — JULY 2015-JUNE 2016 HEARTLAND ALLIANCE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 1 EQUITY AND OPPORTUNITY. FOR ALL. At Heartland Alliance, these are more than mere words. We believe that everyone in our society benefits when people are able to exit poverty, heal from trauma, and achieve stability; secure their rights; and shape policies that respond to their needs. We recognize that persistent disparities – in safety, health, housing, education, economic opportunity, and justice – keep millions of people throughout the country and across the world from participating, prospering, and reaching their full potential. Every day, Heartland Alliance addresses these disparities through direct service, research, and policy change. Thanks to our public and private investors, our community-based partners, and many volunteers, we have directly helped 400,000 individuals and impacted the lives of more than 7 million people worldwide in 2016. On the following pages, you will see just a glimpse of the positive impact Heartland Alliance has had on the lives of so many individuals. Despite these successes, violence is getting in the way. It is disrupting lives, getting in the way of reaching our full potential as a society, and hurting all of us. Heartland Alliance remains as committed as ever to drawing on our deep expertise in healing and justice to address pervasive violence so that we can move more fully toward equity and opportunity for all. To achieve that vision, we need partners and advocates whose sights are set beyond the nearest horizon. We need investors who embrace experimentation to produce better outcomes. We need dreamers, analysts, thought leaders, and practitioners working side by side to imagine and implement new policies and programs that effect lasting change. WE NEED YOU. ALL IN.

HEARTLAND ALLIANCE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 6 SAFETY Ensuring HIV protection worldwide Heartland Alliance helped to ensure that more than 350,000 people worldwide maintained/received access to HIV prevention, care, and treatment interventions in a rights- based environment. Millions more will benefit thanks to Heartland Alliance’s presentation of this work at the United Nations General Assembly High Level Meeting on Ending AIDS 2016. HEARTLAND ALLIANCE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 7 EDUCATION Opportunities because of education Through Heartland Alliance’s financial education and coaching classes, 1,116 people learned how to budget and save, and 6 of these families were able to purchase their own homes. HEARTLAND ALLIANCE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 8 ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY Growing opportunity Seventy percent of the people who participated in Heartland Alliance’s transitional jobs program at our urban farm, FarmWorks, gained well-paid, long-term employment. HEARTLAND ALLIANCE 2016 ANNUAL REPORT | 9 JUSTICE Securing Human Rights Heartland Alliance successfully petitioned The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals to review the case of an Ethiopian man who was falsely accused of terrorist activity and tortured by the Ethiopian government. The ruling sets an important precedent in the U.S. for asylum seekers who have fled countries whose governments use unsubstantiated terrorist allegations as a pretext for targeting certain racial and ethnic groups for persecution.

With the support of the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations, the Advisory Council on Gay and Lesbian Issues (now the Advisory Council on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues) established the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame in June 1991.

  • 2021 Summer Season
    2021 Summer Season How to use this VIRTUAL program book! Here’s how it works: This program book can be viewed on your computer, tablet, or smartphone, and it has all of the information you need about this summer at BVT! It’s also interactive! That means that there are all sorts of things to click on and learn more about! If you see an advertisement or a logo like this one- Go ahead and give it a click! It’ll take you right to that business’s website or social media page. So you can support those who support BVT! And if you see some blue underlined text, like this right here, that’s a click-able link as well! These links can take you to artists’s websites, local businesses, more BVT content, and all kinds of good stuff. And new things will be added all season long as new shows come to the BVT stage! So scroll through and explore… and enjoy the show! Message from the Artistic Director, Karin Bowersock Places, please. At start time of a theatrical performance, the stage manager gives the places call. “Places, please for the top of the show.” It lets actors and run crew know, it's showtime! It's been a bit of a while since we heard the places call at BVT. I don't need to tell you why. And I can't possibly capture in words how it felt to spend a year without you, with only that tentative—and much less satisfying—virtual connection (Ugh, if I never see another zoom room.....).

  • Larry Mckeon H a Life Remembered Walking in Friendship · in Accomplishment · in Life · in Service
    Larry McKeon H a life remembered Walking in Friendship · In Accomplishment · In Life · In Service Larry McKeon June 30, 1944 – May 13, 2008 Veteran · Police Officer · Elected Official · Friend Office of the Mayor City of Chicago As Mayor and on behalf of the City of Chicago, I add my voice to the many paying tribute to the extraordinary life and career of the Honorable Larry McKeon. A proud veteran, former law enforcement official and dedicated public servant, Larry faithfully served the needs and concerns of fellow citizens throughout his life. As the City liaison to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered communities, he played an invaluable role in fostering cooperation, tolerance and understanding. As a pioneering State Representative, Larry was a strong and effective voice for his constituents and inspired us all with his selfless dedication to helping those in need. I send my condolences to the family and friends of Larry and hope you find comfort in his memory and the love he shared with you. His enthusiastic leadership and vision will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on in the communities and causes to which he dedicated himself so faithfully. Sincerely, Richard M. Daley Mayor General Assembly State of Illinois To the Family and Friends of Larry McKeon, As the Speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives, I was honored to have served with State Representative Larry McKeon and to call him my friend. While it is true that Larry will be recorded in the annals of Illinois history as the first openly gay, HIV-positive lawmaker to serve in the General Assembly—a remarkable and important distinction, and the fact that may be most remembered—we should take care to never forget that he was also an exemplary human being and public servant.
