Recognition
I’m at a statewide conference with my peers (folx who have similar job as me in the disability non-profit sector) and today there was an award ceremony. Each year prior to the conference, everyone that attends votes for an advocate that they think did amazing work over the last year. This year, they voted for me! (I voted for me too negl but I had to be convinced by my coworker to do so))....

mattachinereview:
It’s potentially really triggering, because it is about upsetting topics, but I am very happy with how it turned out.
Amazing piece! Read if you can. There was an article I read a while ago about a mom who raised her child gender neutral for 5 years and it briefly mentioned how people who insist on knowing which is basically asking “what’s in your kids...
