Tell 3 campaign

The ACLU's national office is launching a campaign with Join the Impact, PFLAG, the Equality Federation and several other groups entitled “Tell 3.” The goal of the campaign is to build support for LGBT equality by encouraging folks to have three conversations with friends and family. There is a website for the campaign, www.tell-three.org, which talks about why these conversations are important and includes resource materials for starting conversations.

How can you help foster equality? It's as easy as 1, 2, 3.

Pledge to Tell 3 people what it's like for you or your loved ones to be LGBT.

Why is it important?
Across the country, people are fired from their jobs, kids are bullied at school, and same-sex couples can't foster children, adopt, or marry because of their real or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity.

How do I do it?
It's simple.
Tell 3 people about the struggles you or your loved ones have faced because of sexual orientation or gender identity. That you are tired of seeing people discriminated against for who they love. That everyone deserves respect.

Can I make a difference?
Yes! Research shows that the best way to change hearts and minds and get them to support equality is through conversations about the lives and struggles of LGBT folks.

Visit www.tell-three.org for resources on how to start conversations, change minds, and foster equality.
