Who knew?
Thank you to Sari Grant for shedding some light on other communities who have been under-served in the area of college counseling (well, probably in other areas as well). One such community is the LBGT. Today I met with the Director of the youth center of the Gay and Lesbian Center in Los Angeles. We spoke about the need to help these students reach their potential and maximize their possibilities. He admitted to me that when he was a young boy he did not think he could be anything…after all, “what could I be other than gay?” Many of these students have been ostracized and rejected by their families and community. Much gratitude goes out to the men and women working everyday to make sure everyone has a fair shake.
