It's true that society as a whole has become more accepting, but homophobia continues to be pervasive in much of the public safetyarena. Most states still do not have any employment protection against harassment and discrimination based on sexual orientation. Imagine being fired from the job you love because of who you are.

American Heroes Coming Out From Behind The Badge is Greg Miraglia's second book intended to show examples of how police officers, firefighters, and EMS professionals have been able to come out and be successful on the job. The stories come from across the country and tell of a very personal and courageous journey. They are intended to both inspire and educate.

Join us for the official book release and signing event at the A Different Light bookstore. Author Greg Miraglia will be joined by several of the contributing authors including Sergeant Peter Thoshinsky, EMT Jessica McGuinness and Fire Captain Brett Dunckel.

This event will include readings from the book, time to ask questions from the authors, and of course, an opportunity to get your book signed.
