Post a Comment On: TransGriot

[Image]I've written a few posts about the ongoing situation with the Houston based Covenant House Texas and their less than respectful treatment of TBLG kids.

To catch you up on the backstory about what's transpiring here and what had the Houston rainbow community upset with Covenant House Texas,  thought it was time to compile those links into one handy dandy post for your websurfing convenience and for you to peruse..

There's word that another meeting was held today that may finally resolve this situation to everyone's satisfaction.    We'll see.
