This week we are helping get media attention for one of the most important projects I have ever worked on in my career. No way to overstate that, which is saying something. Our community now has a tool that all of us should look at, use and be thankful for, something that will change the way we treat LGBTQ youth and how we look at the role families play in living our lives to the fullest.

You will be seeing a lot of media attention (as much as we can the week between Christmas and New Year's, but you all know how relentless we are here at Renna Communications) for the first of a number of research papers published by Dr. Caitlin Ryan and her Family Acceptance Project. Not heard of her? For shame.

I was listening to this on NPR today, how a little acceptance goes a long way in improving quality of life for TLGB kids. Who'da thought!
