October 11th is National Coming Out Day, and I wanted to provide some resources for some of you who might have someone to come out to – a wife, girlfriend, parent, child, friend, or peer.

- Lambda’s tips for coming out are brief but helpful.
- HRC has a special section of their Coming Out Project pages called Coming Out as Transgender.
