Volunteering with Just Like Us is more than just an opportunity to give back – it’s a chance to be part of a movement for positive change.
“I love the idea that I might be helping a young LGBT+ person feel more comfortable about themself but I also love that it feels like a healing experience for me. I never got to have these kind of talks in schools and I know that it would’ve changed my life, so to be able to do that for someone else makes me feel like I am doing something important for the younger version of myself.”
