I am in my last days in RI.

I have been the victim of hate crimes and rapes in this state.

I want to leave this state with something useful for transppl.

I have substantial public speaking experience, and I am a Latina trans woman.

Where do I sign? I would love to show and speak out. Contact me ASAP.
