Being LGBT & Jewish

Today I want to offer some resources to those in our community who not only deal with being LGBT but Jewish. I think we sometimes get lost in our own struggles of just being LGBT and forget about others who may have multiple discrimination's. We all deserve dignity, respect, and equality! No one should suffer for existing. I wish I had more to offer today but sorting through a sea of bad humor and hate can be difficult.  If anyone has more good resources please let me know.

Keshnet offers education and support, social events, and advocacy for the LGBT Jewish community. They have a wonderful list of resources that I won't duplicate here but certainly check them out.

The World Congress of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Jews is an advocacy group. Their efforts are international.
