Our guest speaker last night was Anne Stanback. She is “a LGBT rights activist and the founder and Executive Director of Love Makes a Family (LMF), which is a statewide non-profit advocacy organization working for gender equality and marriage equality in Connecticut.
On October 18, 2006, she was inducted into the Connecticut Women's Hall of Fame for her work as a social justice activist on behalf of the gay, lesbian community, bisexual and transgender communities.
Anne has received numerous awards for her work on behalf of women and the LGBT community including: the Harriet Tubman Award for Achievement in the Pursuit of Social Justice from the National Organization for Women (CT NOW), 2002.”

ReplyDeleteAs usual, COS does great banquets and I had an excellent time at the big bash.
Thank you for helping to organize it!
Whew, I wouldn't make it until 1:30 either! I love the color you're wearing in that picture. Is it from that night? You look great.
