Christopher T. Gonzalez, also known as Chris Gonzalez, was an activist who succumbed to AIDS in May 1994.〔Diana Penner. ''The Indianapolis Star''. 1994-4-3, pp. 1-2. Retrieved 2010-27-2.〕 He left a legacy for gay and lesbian youth in and around the Indianapolis area that continues through the non-profit organization he founded, Indiana Youth Group (IYG), one of the first organizations in the country to support gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender youth. ==Early life== Chris was born October 28, 1963 and grew up as the typical model student in Griffith, Indiana. Always a well-spoken and well-liked student, he served as student council president at Griffith High School and was the voice behind morning announcements over the loud speaker heard all over the school. He even dated a pretty pompon girl at one time.〔Ruth Holladay. ''Indianapolis Star''. 1992-15-3. Retrieved 2010-24-2.〕 However, like so many same gender loving teenagers, Chris was leading a double life in order to cover up who he was inside. Chris was ashamed of his homosexuality and felt like he had to prove to others that he was worthy. He did not want to be a homosexual because he was quite aware of society's small-minded opinions and misconceptions of same gender loving people.〔 He grew up in Lake County in a "very traditional Hispanic family"〔 As a member of the Hispanic community, he felt his family would disown him if they ever found out he preferred boys over girls. He pursued his gay identity while still a student at Franklin College of Indiana where he was an active member of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity, and a journalism major.
