We're Excited: NEWS on a fine, late-summer day

Months of concentrated work have suddenly burst into rewards.

We have selected an Intern to develop a Peer Mentor Program (PMP) for trans youth.  The Intern was selected from a pool of 7 excellent candidates.  Quinn Elliott will begin work September 11th, 2012.  Stay tuned for a blog post about Quinn. The remaining 6 have shown interest in participating as advisers during development and likely Peer Mentors for the program launch Summer or Fall 2013.

We have received two in-kind donations to support the Internship:

Fabulous 5 needs 2 more donors.  Become one of the five people who commit to donate $100/month for 10 months. You are making it possible to pay a talented trans youth a good wage while developing professional skills and creating a Peer Mentor Program!
