We will provide emergency assistance and contact help. We will also assist in accreditation of media for Congressional access and other access requirements. Additional benefits are being formulated. Membership is open to any working member of the gay press, including print media, radio and television. Membership is available to freelancers as well, and freelance photographers and reporters will benefit from having an official media accreditation in dealing with governmental and other authorities.
Membership is open to any working media person in the world.
Accreditation by a U.S. organization may be highly beneficial to members in some foreign countries. News Reporter accreditation requires you to submit at least one example of your work being published by the gay media with a by-line or a statement from the publication. News Photographer accreditation requires you to submit a published photograph with a printed credit line. A publication masthead listing you as an employee is also adequate. If your work appears online, provide the appropriate information so we can check it out.
