We've added Julie and Hollin to our list for review. Any more you can think of?

For what it's worth, we're going to try to confirm Ferrick again.

OUToberfest Thinking of coming out? Not out yet? Here are some resources we've compiled. To move forward with equality for all LGBT people, it's important that all of us come out to family, friends and co-workers.

Whether you are 15 or 51, coming out can be a tremendous step of courage.
