April 20: Community Day of Silence  
Each year lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth across the country are silent for a day to honor and bring attention to those who have been silenced through violence and institutional oppression. As part of LCCC, we are asking the entire community to stand with our youth.

As participants we ask you to print cards describing your reason for doing this activity and post a sign in their place of business if that is appropriate. (File attached below)

We are asking you to sign up here if you are going to participate in the Community Day of Silence. We will email you after the CDOS to get your experiences and thoughts as you participated.
