Attorney's Hope to Open Legal Clinic for Gays in Maryland
Written by ACD Staff 

University of Maryland hopes to open a legal clinic for gays and lesbians by the end of the year.

     Legal experts in the state of Maryland understand that LGBT have special legal problems, and rarely have the opportunity to receive help. When the state's proposed Free State Law project emerges this Fall, organizers and LGBT supporters hope to change that.

    Aaron Merki, a law student at The University of Maryland, is helping to organize the project and hopes it helps Maryland's transgendered youth. "There's a large population in the city of homeless lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth who have been sort of abandoned by their families, especially the transgender youth," he said.
