Resources on the Internet
There are hundreds of World-Wide Web Resources for parents, families, friends and young people who
need to know more about homosexuality. For young people, one of the best places to start is
Out Proud!
a service of the National Coalition for Gay, Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender youth. This web site includes a wealth
of information, including brochures
on a variety of topics, including
"Coming Out To Your Parents"
and even information
For Parents of Gay Children
Out Proud! also
sponsors the Queer America(tm)
database of lesbigay resources. You can search for resources, support
groups and help in your area, selected using your zip code or area
code, and sorted by age group and gender. This search is completely
confidential and anonymous. Find resources in your area with a
simple SEARCH.
The Youth Assistance Organization
is run by gay and lesbian teens for gay and lesbian teens.
It is an online service, run by volunteers, created to help
self-identifying gay, lesbian, bisexual and questioning
youth. YAO exists to provide young people with a safe space
online to be themselves.
The QRD also
has PFLAG related links, including other chapters
already on the world wide web, info on the general email support and
discussion groups
"pflag-talk"
and
"tgs-pflag,"
a list that was organized to provide and encourage trans-gender support.
