SAFE AND SOUND: LEGISLATION WOULDPROTECT INCARCERATED LGBT YOUTH
State Senate and Assembly bills would ban discrimination based on sexual orientation in juvenile detention facilities. > By Kamelia Angelova
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youths in juvenile detention could gain new protections under pending state legislation. The Safe And Fair, Equal Treatment for Youth (SAFETY) Act, introduced by Assemblymember Roger Green, would outlaw discrimination based on sexual orientation and require staff to attend special training sessions on LGBT issues. A similar bill was also introduced by State Senator Tom Duane in March of this year.
