The City of Toronto recently named the winners of its annual Pride Award for Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Trans-sexual Two-Spirited Issues.
The award was established in 2003 to mark the 30th anniversary of city council's decision to add sexual orientation to the city's human rights policy.
The 2007 winners are Rupert Raj, Deb Parent and Central Toronto Youth Services.
According to the city the award "honours individuals and/or organizations that have made or are making a significant or ongoing contribution to the well-being and advancement of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual and two-spirited community in Toronto."
