Description

Why are people “suddenly” talking about transgender people? And books? And bathrooms? What does this have to do with New Hampshire?

In this episode, Liz and Heidi Carrington Heath (Executive Director of New Hampshire Outright) cover some of the frequently asked questions they've gotten about LGBTQ+ folks, especially transgender individuals and young people.  

Liz asks Heidi her favorite coming out story. Heidi, in turn, gives a big shout out to her mom (hi, mom!).
