Door Sign Campaign:

WOW! We didn't anticipate such a response. VA staff had asked if we could supply a low cost sign that would indicate that their office was LGBT friendly. We have provided to date 100+ signs to VA staff members. These signs are displayed at the main VA medical center in Milwaukee plus at several of their satellite clinics throughout the state. The signs are magnetic and can be easily moved from office to office. They are available in our store.
