As the nation’s economic crisis deepens, gay rights organizations are feeling the pinch. The Gay &Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation announced it eliminated some staff positions last Friday. GLAAD President Neil G. Giuliano said that he has not seen actual numbers of positions eliminated, but that "the reduction in force touched all departments."
"We looked at the work we're doing and the mission we have and we had to make a strategic plan to make reductions," he said. "Fundraising has slowed dramatically and the non-profit sector is not immune to what's going on, and sometimes we're impacted more."
