Catholic Organizations Challenge Firing of Lesbian Religion Teacher
A Joint Statement from the leaders of Call To Action, Fortunate Families, DignityUSA, and New Ways Ministry
Denver – June 21, 2010 - Toni Talarico was fired by Catholic officials despite a sterling record of 28 years of teaching religion at a Catholic parish in Denver. She was fired because she happens to be a lesbian. And, although Toni was fired in January of this year, the story is now coming to light after months of wrangling over her accrued benefits.
Vision Statement
DignityUSA envisions and works for a time when Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Catholics are affirmed and experience dignity through the integration of their spirituality with their sexuality, and as beloved persons of God participate fully in all aspects of life within the Church and Society.
