An article in last Sunday’s Detroit Free Press (sorry, can’t find the article online) says that when businesses are certified that they are LGBT owned they get a boost in business. The boost comes because some other businesses, various non-profits, and some government agencies have policies of favoring diversity or minorities when awarding contracts. And being LGBT owned qualifies.
The certification process confirms that at least 51% of the owners of the business are LGBT. One source of the certification is the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce.
After so many years of discrimination, hearing that being LGBT is now a business advantage is good news!
