This campaign is a love note. | Amplify Impact

More info will be coming on this website. In addition to public comments, we'd love to include blogs and other written testimony by trans youth or other advocates and loving community.

I deleted lots of social media in the run-up to moving to Spain... but I'm back (online, and living in Barcelona).
