This was a mailing from the Sacramento LGBTQI Center. I cannot make the Candle Light Vigil becasue will be at Butch Voices, Los Angeles. I will be at the training on October 23rd. Hope to see other Planeteers there.
__________________________________________________ _______________ Gay Teen Suicides - At Risk Teens in Sacramento Five teenagers in the United States have taken their lives in recent weeks - all reportedly because they were openly gay or thought to be gay. These recent accounts have touched us all. We know the problem exists at all levels. Even though many incidents are never made so public, recent events have brought the issue to the mainstream. The names are out now. Seth Walsh, 13 in Tehachapi, California; Asher Brown, 13 in Cypress, Texas; Billy Lucas, 13, in Greensberg, Indiana; Raymond Chase, 19, at Johnson & Wales University, Providence, Rhode Island, and Tyler Clementi, 18, at Rutgers University in New Jersey. This clearly spans the bridges from middle school, to high school, to college. In response to the death of Tyler and the others, Ellen DeGeneres said last week that she is "devastated," and goes on to say: "Something must be done...This needs to be a wake up call to everyone that teenage bullying and teasing is an epidemic in this country, and the death rate is climbing." Does this involve our Sacramento community? You bet it does. At the Center, we have recently been faced with the problem of gay homeless youth sleeping on the Center's back porch. That's right. There are a variety of circumstances, but the bottom line is they are afraid to use existing services and there are no existing respite services directed toward this population. In a 2009 survey of more than 7,000 LGBT middle and high school students by Presgraves' Education Network, 84.6 percent said they were verbally harassed, 40.1 percent physically harassed, and 18.8 percent physically assaulted at school in the past year because of their sexual orientation. What is being done and what can the Center do? The Center is already engaged in proactive activities to address the homeless issues. In the short term, the issue will be raised at the Sacramento Region LGBTQ Leadership Coalition which meets monthly at the Center. Concerned local organizations, such as PFLAG, are represented there. This is not a problem the Center can tackle alone. Longer term, the Center has taken on student interns this fall who are compiling information on area high school GSA's and community resources. The ongoing Center Youth Groups will use this information for contacts and outreach. The Center is offering an all day workshop on October 23 for professionals entitled "Serving LGBTQ Youth in Today's Climate" at the Center with a speaker from Advocates for Youth in Washington, D.C. CEU credits are available for this timely program. The Center is sponsoring our Queer Prom again in March of next year. This successful event attracted approximately 100 youth last spring and we are hoping to double that number by partnering with the local high schools and GSA's. One of the main goals of the Prom is to enhance self confidence and a positive self image. The Center needs help with these activities. Become a member, or think about a donation of in kind services for one of our programs. There are online resources for information and crisis intervention. A 24 hour youth crisis intervention service is provided by The Trevor Project, the leading national organization focused on crisis and suicide prevention among LGBTQ youth. Two college oriented organizations concerned with LGBTQ issues and bullying are Matthews Place, started by the Matthew Shepherd Foundation, and Campus Pride, based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Local Help Lines Include: Diogenes 24 hour crisis line: 800-339-7177 - Diogenes Youth Services cares for runaway, homeless and at-risk youth. It is one of the only local non-profit agencies offering free comprehensive services focused primarily on 12 to 17 year-olds. The Effort 24 hour crisis line: 916-368-3111 - The Effort is an established Family Services Agency providing medical care, drug treatment and comprehensive family care services in Sacramento and surrounding counties. Sacramento County Mental Health Crisis Intervention Line - 916-732-3637 Stand Up to Youth Suicide: Candlelight Vigil Friday Night Equality Action Now, in partnership with local LGBTQ organizations and mental health specialists has organized a candlelight vigil to be held in the parking lot of McMartin Realty, 21st and K Streets, Midtown Sacramento, between 6:00pm and 7:00pm, Friday, October 8, 2010. The vigil will be held in conjunction with a nation-wide effort to, "Stand Up to Youth Suicide". Representatives of Equality Action Now and other LGBT organizations and mental health experts will be on hand to help with questions and concerns and to provide the community with resources to fight bullying in Sacramento area schools.

Drag Queen Bingo!
Hey Sacramento!
Come on out to Hamburger Patty's on Wednesday, April 13th at 7pm & play some Drag Queen Bingo! A portion of the proceeds are being donated to the Sacramento Gender Health Center. The Center has been open less than a year and provides invaluable gender and mental health services to our community. The Sacramento Gender Health Center would love to beat the record for most money raised. Won't you come out & play with us?

comes in to blow some of the dust off of this.
Am putting out my feelers for possible temporary living options from oct 2011 through sept 2012. Sounds like from oct til mayish that work will be on the low side so would only be a few nights here or there. So if I could find a couch or even a driveway to park a truck with sleeping arrangements in it and some bathroom privileages that would be great. for may through sept 2012 my favored option would be to find someone with property outside of sacramento. The closer to the el dorado forest the better. I have a popup camper that I would love to setup somewhere for that time and live out of it. There might be options throught the forest but I'm just trying to see what else is out there. I would just need somewhere to plug it in and someplace to hook up a hose for water. Bathroom privileages would be nice but i have a port a potty and could hook up a shower facility if needed off of the camper. |

Again, just looking to see if anyone has any low cost/freebie resources.
These items are needed to complete the backyard here in order to prepare it for a Ceremony. Thanks Ahead!

looks like i'll be up that way probably either on May 14, 15, or 16. Not written in stone but the probability of those dates being correct are getting higher!
First few weeks will probably be fairly slow so will have some spare time to maybe get over that way! I'll actually be in the eldorado forest ... and living about half way between placerville and south lake tahoe. July and August will be insane! But may need insanity breaks. I"ll be on 6 days off 1 day during those months. so hope to see some of ya! |

Memorial for Mike NORTHERN CA
The S.F. LGBT Center is planning a memorial for Mike McLeod sometime mid-February. They will let me know the exact date in a couple of days.
Mike worked as the Facilities Manager there for many years. If you would like to make a donation to the Center in Mike's name, go to their website to do so at www.sfcenter.org, any amount is welcome. OR mail a donation. The San Francisco LGBT Center is located at 1800 Market Street, S.F., CA 94102 Parking is hellish in this neighborhood, I highly recommend public transportation. Nearest BART station is Civic Center and you can either wak the four blocks OR take MUNI from there one stop up. Details to follow. Rope-- |
