GLBT Information Center
Welcome to the GLBT Information Center at Thinking Ink. This area is a resource for gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender educators, youth, and young adults. I have assembled this area more for personal reasons than anything else. I remember what it was like to come out as a young gay male and to not have resources readily available to answer my questions, allay my doubts, or calm my fears. More importantly, I believe in today's era of information overload, having a starting point to access the myriad of resources available on the web can be a little comforting.
If you have ideas for categories or know of a link that I should add to this area, please contact me.
