The White House announced on Friday it plans to host a series of LGBT conferences throughout the country in early 2012 so the public can "hear directly" from the administration on efforts "to ensure health, well-being, security, justice, and equality for LGBT Americans."

In a statement, the White House identified the White House LGBT Conference on Health — which will be held in Philadelphia on Feb. 16 — as the inaugural event for the initiative. The conference is set to feature remarks from Secretary of Health & Human Services Kathleen Sebelius.
