Rainbow Families is proud to share the news that Michele Zavos was awarded the prestigious Justice William J Brennan Jr  Award on June 11 by the DC Bar.   The honor is presented biannually to a DC Bar Member in recognition of "outstanding work toward furthering the public interest and equal justice."   

Michele has dedicated her work to securing the civil rights of LGBTQ folks, and we couldn’t be more pleased that she received this well-deserved recognition.   She is one of the founding members of Rainbow Families/Maybe Baby and donates significant time to volunteer at Rainbow Families programs.

In May of this year Michele was also awarded our first annual Rainbow Families HERO AWARD, honoring those in our community who go above and beyond to support and advocate for us.
