A few links of interest during this slow vacation season:
- Long Island lesbian moms Syndi Diaz and Sandy Colon shared the story of their domestic life and supportive local community with the New York Daily News.
- For the second time, a same-sex couple has sued online adoption service Adoption LLC and Adoption Media LLC, after the service refused to let them place their profiles on the companies’ site, ParentProfiles.com. Last year, the companies ceased doing business in California after a suit brought by a couple there. The new suit could see them pulling their business from New York as well.
- The Upper Lake Union School District in California reached agreement with the ACLU of Northern California on behalf of a student who was the victim of anti-gay harassment and physical abuse. The district agreed to a comprehensive plan including changed and publicized policies, staff training, support for a Gay-Straight Alliance club at the middle School and implementation of the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network’s “No Name Calling Week” curriculum in all schools.
