Gay Neighbor Campaign Takes Message of
Love and Family to the Suburbs
August 27, 2009
On Monday, September 14, 2009, Cream City Foundation will publicly
unveil their latest Gay Neighbor billboard media campaign. This
public education campaign will challenge stereotypes about gay families
in Southeastern Wisconsin by putting a face to what a gay family
looks like. The billboard images of real neighbors illustrate our
common values of love, family, and commitment - emphasizing fairness
for everyone including gay and transgender people and their families.
The billboard images will be revealed at Monday's press conference.
This is the second time Southeastern Wisconsin will be embarking
on a public education campaign aimed at creating more gay-friendly
allies and challenging stereotypes about the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual
and Transgender (LGBT) community. Members of the press will receive
copies of the images, sample stories, ready-to-use quotes and have
a chance to hear from their neighbors. Several neighbors appearing
on the billboards will be present for comment, as will spokespeople
and board members of the Cream City Foundation who sponsors the
Gay Neighbor campaign.
