Session V: Sunday 11:15 am-12:15 pm
OUR COMMUNITY: "Creating Our Children and
Our Families"
Small group discussion will address issues
concerning our own image and role as LGBT parents and families.
Discussion will be prefaced by social research comparing heterosexual
stepfamilies to LGBT stepfamilies, family structure, and gender
identity. Handouts will include a suggested reading list, research
articles and contacts.
Presenter: Margaret Eversole raised a 21-year-old and is
"stepmother" to a 10-year-old. How Margaret fits into the
queer community when she perceives of herself as a parent and how she
fits into the heterosexual community when she perceives of herself as a
lesbian parent are issues that form her life.
Room: Ucen Lobero
