Instead of stepping in at the finish line, get involved earlier. Check in, ask curious questions, and help your team succeed while letting them own the outcome.

If I had done this in Idaho, it would’ve been a felony. Cisgender Women use men’s bathrooms all the time. Transgender bathroom laws are messed up. Follow us on our journey in our 1984 VW Vanagon Fern.
