• Find and get involved with your local LGBTQ center, even in small towns
• Build physical community networks of people who can actually help if things get worse
• Centers provide safe spaces, resources, event information, and connections to elders
• Legacy organizations like ACT UP, Lambda Legal, and the National LGBTQ Task Force continue fighting for equality
• The Matthew Shepard Foundation offers abundant resources for education and support
• Learn from queer history through books like "The Book of Pride" and "The Stonewall Reader"
