LGBTQ Outreach of Porter County

Lakeshore Public Media host Dee Dotson speaks to Christ Lutheran Church of Valparaiso Reverend Erica Gibson Even and Griffith Lutheran Church Deaconess Carrie Sovola about the intersectionality of faith and the LGBTQ+ community.

Advocates are calling on Valparaiso Community Schools to examine its policies, after a transgender student said school leaders denied his requests to use the men's restrooms and locker room. The American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana recently filed a lawsuit on behalf of high school senior Jasper Wisecarver, alleging the school corporation violated Title IX of the Education Amendments Act and the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
