Join COLAGE and Center Kids for a special screening of:
In My Shoes: Stories of Youth with LGBT Parents
a new youth-produced, documentary film
In a time when LGBT families are debated and attacked in the media, courts and Congress, from school houses to state houses across the country, five young people give you a chance to walk in their shoes – to hear their own views on marriage, making change, and what it means to be a family. www.colage.org/inmyshoes
We invite you to the New York premiere of this award-winning film, and then to engage in discussion with other children, youth and adults with LGBT parents, LGBT parents, our family and friends. Additionally, Meredith Fenton, the Program Director of COLAGE will be on hand to discuss the film project and how you can use the movie to make change in your schools and communities.
