I truly loved the network and opportunities working with the National Black Justice Coalition exposed me too. It allowed me to grow and learn about experiences that Black LGBTQ/SGL individuals face in a number of ways. Further it challenged me to consider even further the diversity of the demographic in which I may study or encounter.

Advice
