              <text>Attorney John Ward founded the non-profit legal rights organization, Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders (GLAD) in 1978. It grew out of the Boston/Boise Committee, a group organized in December 1977 to defend the rights of gay men arrested in Boston Massachusetts as part of an "anti-gay witchhunt." GLAD would file its first lawsuit in 1979 on behalf of a gay man arrested at the Boston Public Library.&#13;
&#13;
GLAD is based in Boston and works to combat discrimination against the LGBTQ community throughout New England and nationwide. In 2003, GLAD was involved with a lawsuit that would lead to the recognition of same-sex marriage in Massachusetts.</text>
