Conference workshops will cover a variety of issues
important to the lesbian and gay movement today, including hate
crime legislation, lesbian and gay family issues, AIDS activism,
sodomy law repeal, lesbian and gay rights referenda,
international organizing and media advocacy. The conference will
also feature a special fund-raising track that will present
experts in the field of development, direct mail and grants.
This year, CREATING CHANGE will be augmented by three extra-
conference institutes. On November 8, NGLTF will present the
People of Color Organizing Institute to address such topics as
networking strategies, women of color issues and coalition
building among Black, Latin, Native American, and Asian
communities. Also on November 8, the Diversity Training
Institute will explore the broad spectrum of the gay and lesbian
community and investigate ways of building a more inclusive
movement. Following the conference, on November 12, the
Campus Organizing Institute will provide an opportunity for
students to reinforce their organizing skills and learn more
about the range of issues facing lesbians and gay men in college
communities.
CREATING CHANGE '91 will be held at the Old Colony Inn in
Alexandria, Va., just minutes from metro Washington. The
Alexandria Gay and Lesbian Community Association will serve as
the local host organization. Interested individuals should
contact NGLTF for registration information. Write or call
