President Endorses Equality
President Obama endorsed marriage equality today in a demonstration of courage, compassion and leadership. These are the same values SMYAL works to encourage and develop among all youth and community members. We hope the President's action will inspire each of us to value diversity and champion equality and dignity for all -- especially our community's LGBTQ youth.
