Family Life
Foreign Service life offers unique
opportunities and is a great career! GLIFAA has worked closely with the
American Foreign Service Association (AFSA), Department management, and
Diplomatic Security in making the overseas and domestic environments
more welcoming to the partners of lesbian and gay FSO's, civil
servants, and contractors.
The situation for LGBT families in foreign affairs agencies improved significantly in the summer of 2009. Read press releases and new regulations outlining benefits for same-sex domestic partners and children of those domestic partners here. These changes came about after a great deal of advocacy and hard work on the part of GLIFAA and our allies.
