LEAD WITH LOVE: a film to help parents.

LEAD WITH LOVE: "This film is for parents who have recently learned that their son or daughter is gay, lesbian, or bisexual."  The film offers emotional support, along with clear, evidence-based information and concrete advice for strengthening families and relationships as parents learn of their son or daughter's sexual identity.  Probably the best 35 minutes you'll spend gathering information and perspective on how to respond to your son or daughter's coming out.

After watching the film, get follow-up information and access to more resources by copying and pasting the following web address:
