Support Resources

One of the organisations publications in 1990 was the video 'Parents Talking' featuring an introduction by Sir Ian McKellen. The video is a support resource exploring the thoughts of parents of Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual people, the video was first broadcast and available free of charge via the internet from 1997. Other free resources since the early 1970s include booklets titled ' A Guide for Families and Friends' and deals with the many issues that in some cases may arise when a person makes the disclosure of sexuality. The second is 'How Do I Tell My Parents' and this discusses the many issues that often worry young people about the disclosure of sexuality. The booklets, both by Rose Robertson aim to assist all parties in looking at the different aspects of the disclosure of sexuality.

Famous quotes containing the words support and/or resources:

    Have a sense of piety ever on your mind, and be ever mindful that this is subject to no change, but will last you as long as life and support you in death. Elevate your soul by prayer and by contemplation without mystical enthusiasm.
    James Boswell (1740–1795)

    I am willing to pledge myself that if the time should ever come that the voluntary agencies of the country together with the local and state governments are unable to find resources with which to prevent hunger and suffering ... I will ask the aid of every resource of the Federal Government.... I have the faith in the American people that such a day will not come.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
