President of AT&T California Ken McNeely will receive the Luminary Award. McNeely, who lives with his husband and two children in San Francisco, is leading the way in the private sector. He was the first openly gay officer of AT&T, and serves on the Officer Advisory Board for AT&T's LGBT and allied Employee Resource Group Damien Harris Patriots Jersey , the oldest LGBT employee resource group in the nation.

"At 21 years old this year, Our Family Coalition is all grown up," says OFC's first Executive Director of color, Renata Moreira. "We're more than ready to meet the challenges facing LGBT families under the Trump administration. This event gives us a chance to celebrate our resilience Chase Winovich Patriots Jersey , take pride in where we've been, and generate energy for our next, bold, intersectional steps forward."

"I am honored Congresswoman Barbara Lee will be there and honored as well-though I am more likely the 'as well Joejuan Williams Patriots Jersey ,'" jokes honoree Spiegel. "Michelle Meow is the usually hilarious political comic MC. The work I'm being recognized for has been about helping make sure LGBT couples are included fully in family law settings. That work goes hand-in-hand with the number of LGBT families who OFC has supported in coming and being out, being legally protected, and thereby changing the political landscape for marriage equality. That work is now redoubled by OFC and all of us."

Now in its 9th year, Night Out has established itself as the only event exclusively supporting LGBT families with children in the Bay Area. The general public is warmly invited to this adults-only event.
