Fairness at the Final Four
At this year’s NCAA Men’s Final Four weekend in Atlanta, the Human Rights Campaign and It Takes a Team! — a project of Billie Jean King’s Women in Sports Foundation — presented a panel discussion designed to continue the dialogue about gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender athletes at all levels, from high school to the pros.
Below are specific resources for athletes and coaches to help with the coming out experience and discussing GLBT issues in the sports arena.
