FEDtalks Daily: Troy Stevenson of Garden State Equality--Watch Now!

August 21, 2013

Our eighth FEDtalk given at the Summer Meeting 2013 is from Troy Stevenson, Executive Director at Garden State Equality.

 

Each year our Annual Summer Meeting brings LGBT leaders from across the nation together to share ideas and forge connections. But at this year’s Meeting, we introduced a new session that quickly became a breakout star of the conference: FEDtalks.

For FEDtalks, we invited state leaders and our five Federation interns to take five minutes to share a big idea, talk through an innovative strategy, or offer up an exciting concept. We were amazed at what we got!

FEDtalks were such a big hit that we wanted to share them with everyone, not just the folks who joined us at Summer Meeting.

Each day we’ll be releasing one FEDtalk on our blog -- so keep checking back!
