Webinar: Monday, January 22, 5-6 pm
Many states are trying to restrict LGBTQ+ rights, especially targeting the transgender community. What challenges does Michigan face as it braces for an influx of "refugees" from restrictive states, seeking affirmative health care? What do we need to know about proposed legislation in Michigan? What can religious and community leaders do to support LGBTQ+ people in the face of growing opposition and oppression?

We are invited to participate in a webinar with leaders Jay Kaplan, LGBTQ+ Rights Project Staff Attorney, ACLU-Michigan, and Emme Zanotti, Advocacy & Outreach Director, Equality Michigan.

This webinar is being presented by Inclusive Justice of Michigan, Jews for a Secular Democracy, and Michigan UU Social Justice Network. Register at this link: https://bit.ly/milgbtq.
