Judy and Dennis Shepard Booking Agency Profile
Judy and Dennis Shepard are human rights activist who were the parents of the late Matthew Shepard, a 21 year old that was a student at the University of Wyoming. Matthew was beaten and pistol-whipped in Laramie, Wyoming. He died six days later in a hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado and the case gained attention country wide as it was known for being one of the most high-profiled hate-crime against the LGBT community. Judy and Dennis went on to create the Matthew Shepard Foundation, which is a foundation that helps advance “social justice, diversity awareness and education, and equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people.” Together, Judy and Dennis also works as activists to teach fellow parents of gay children to lose them for who they are. Judy and Dennis have also worked to pass the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which was passed and signed by President Barack Obama. Dennis has served on the Matthew Shepard Foundation board of directors since it’s inception and also works as a speaker where he advocates for LGBT crime victims and their families and friends.

The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
