This podcast delves deep into how queer folks' personal household experiences has an effect on our mental health and overall wellbeing. We will be hearing the personal stories of young queer people from the Twin Cities that surround discussions of discovering and embracing having a queer identity, coming out, the importance of queer spaces, and growing up in a heteronormative society. We also discuss queer-specific services for those in the Twin Cities that may be struggling with mental or physical health, shelter, or safety.
