Your Story:
-When did you become aware of your sexual orientation/gender identity?
-How “out” are you to your parents, family, friends, classmates, co-workers, etc?
-What sort of relationship do you currently have with your family?
-What, do you think, are the unique challenges that you face as an LGBT person?
-What needs to get better for you? What has gotten better for you?
-What are the biggest challenges you currently face and how are you approaching these challenges?
