The White House’s public engagement office and other federal agencies will hold a series of conferences around the country this year to focus on LGBT issues.
The conferences will begin in February and continue through June, according to a news release from the White House.
Attendees will include community organizers and activists, students and interested citizens, along with officials in the Obama administration.
The inaugural event, the White House LGBT Conference on Health, will be held in Philadelphia Feb. 16, and will feature remarks by Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.
Future conferences will be held in other locations throughout the country and focus on topics such as housing and homelessness, safe schools and communities and HIV/AIDS prevention.
