Transphobia hurts everyone & puts everyone in danger.
Inc cis people.

Here's some info on what to do if you're using a public restroom, someone thinks you're not where you belong, calls the cops, & you're detained.

Thanks to ACLU , Lambda Legal , and the Anon Lesbian for the info contained here.

We kept hearing that even though there is obviously a queer community in Stonington, there is little visible evidence of that.

One of our first, and most popular, efforts has been providing free pride flags to resident or business owner in Stonington& Westerly.
