We all worked together on getting the West Lafayette City Council to approve the resolution adding gender identity, gender expression, and veteran status to the groups that can file complaints with the West Lafayette Human Rights Commission, and it really takes all of us to promote and protect basic human rights for everyone.
As our state legislature gears up for its 2011 session, we hope you will continue to work with Citizens for Civil Rights on the injustices that still face us. We invite you to attend the regular meeting of Citizens for Civil Rights on Tuesday, October 26 at the Pride Lafayette Community Center (640 Main St. in Lafayette) at 7:00.

Part of Tuesday's meeting will be used for a screening of the 38-minute documentary film, Bullied. We're inviting organization leaders to attend this screening and help us plan a public screening of the film to be scheduled sometime soon. We want the public screening to be the next event offered by our community, to continue the conversation around bullying and suicide. The conversation began with the October 7 forum hosted by Pride lafayette that was attended by 30 people. Please show your support for creating safe schools, free of harassment and violence, by attending the screening and helping us promote discussion in our local area.
The agenda for the short business part of the meeting will include:
1. CCR finances
2. Congratulations to the West Lafayette City Council
3. Planning our holiday event (Friday, December 3)
4. The Indiana Equality holiday event (Thursday, December 9)
We hope to see you all on Tuesday.
Jo Ann Mullen,
Pres., CCR
