Educating the community regarding LGBT

The Center is not only an organization the is welcome to the LGBT community but also to the straight community of Denver. They allow heterosexual volunteers participate in many events and or learning sessions that take place daily at the Center. For example: On February 21st, which was presidents day, The Center held an event that was open for the entire community that was to educate the LGBT community of Denver on the legal issues this community has to face and what are some of the recent changes that will take place in office. This was appealing to me as a heterosexual because I became educated on the discrimination that the LGBT faces from our politics. I believe the main issue that members of the LGBT community face is acceptance from society and the heterosexual community. This event was called "Lobby Day" and it educated me on the laws that affect the LGBT community and ways in which I can vote to stop discrimination against this community. I find it interesting and important that The Center not only helps out the issues that face the LGBT community but the fact that they reach out to the straight community to inform them of what they can do to help the LGBT community so that they are treated equally in all areas of life and in the public.
