LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER

Keep Moving the Same Direction — Forward We accomplish more working together for our community We have many excellent people working to make our community better.

As we continue to improve equality and meet the needs of our community, it's important that we all work together and keep things moving forward.

Over the last several years, I've seen some obstacles that we must overcome to keep us moving in a positive direction. There are things that we can do to ensure we make progress and further our causes rather than taking steps backward.

First, I think it is important that we all respect each other and each other's opinions. Too many times organizations or causes lose momentum because of differences of opinions.

When we have positive, constructive discussions that respect everyone, we all benefit. We should not only welcome and listen to other opinions but also seek differing opinions to better form our own opinions.

Second, we should all be kind and considerate.

This goes along with respecting other people's opinions. If you disagree, there is no need for name calling, intimidation or violence.

Third, we must all work together to reach our goals. That doesn't mean we all have to be doing the same thing. We can and should support different causes and belong to different organizations. We just shouldn't work against each other.

is don't become something you are supposed to be fighting against while supporting your own cause. Don't go down to their level. Let's lead by example, be open-minded and show respect.

The ultimate goal of all the organizations, businesses and churches in the Rainbow Pages is equal, fair and just treatment for all. We believe people should be respected no matter their race, religion, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, economic situation or anything else.

Let's all make a commitment to keep moving forward and do our part to make Southwest It can be difficult to listen to and try to understand Florida and the world we live in a little better place opinions so far from your own. It can be impossible tomorrow than it is today. Let's keep marching sometimes to imagine yourself in someone else's forward, toward a world where equality is a given, shoes. But, I've always felt disagreements and not something we have to work toward. constructive dialogue lead to more knowledge and understanding.

I'm not saying we should be open to listening to hate speech or tolerate haters. What I am saying

SWFL PROGRESS

SWFL Makes Great Strides for Equality There have been some great strides made for equality over the last year in Southwest Florida.

The first Pride was celebrated in Naples last year with more than 5,000 people attending the inaugural event. The event raised more than $20,000 to establish a new LGBTQ Emergency Fund. The fund provides temporary financial support for anyone in the LGBTQ community facing an emergency situation such as suddenly finding themselves homeless or an emergency medical need.

While the Emergency Fund provides one-time temporary help, the individuals in need are referred to agencies where they can find a more permanent solution.

A Task Force was established by Naples Pride to oversee the emergency fund and to bring together people across the community to help address issues and needs facing the LGBTQ community.

Another LGBTQ Fund is continuing to expand its reach throughout Southwest Florida. The Southwest Florida Community Foundation started

the LGBTQ Community Fund a couple years ago and has awarded grants to two non-profits addressing issues including suicide prevention and elder care. It has also become very involved in various community events that support equality.

This year, the group is sponsoring a VIP tent at Naples Pride.

The business community has become more proactive in promoting equality as well. The Southwest Florida Harmony Chamber of Commerce celebrated its one year anniversary in May 2018.

The Naples, Marco Island, Everglades Convention & Visitors Bureau recently launched a campaign to attract more LGBTQ visitors to Collier County.

There will be same sex couples included in advertising. The CVB has created a staff position to oversee the effort.

More information about most of these efforts is included in this edition of the Rainbow Pages. You can also read more at rainbowpagesswfl.com.
