Episode CW: mention of death by suicide.
Born into the LDS faith, Allison Dayton grew up in the bay area. She is married to Ken, mom to three mimi to one and founder of Lift and Love, an organization which focuses on strengthening Latter-day Saint LGBTQ+ families.
Allison has felt called to advocate for and be involved with the LGBTQ+ community first through her older brother Preston, and then through her son Jake. In this journey she has experienced deepest of tragedies, as well as the joy of love, acceptance, and unity.
Allison truly believes an LGBTQ child, sibling, or family member of any kind is a true gift. She is on a mission to help other families, wards, and leaders support these remarkable children of our Heavenly Parents.
You can find out more about Lift and Love as well as the upcoming Gather Conference at liftandlove.org.
