Summary

I have never seen this as a conference topic before and being part of so many lives it might be a bit overdue. This panel is from the 2024 Ontario Regional Conference held last month. There are two panelists, William L from Toronto Ontario and Cara B from Los Angeles California each shares for about 25 min on the topic. I just added the 40th Annual Spring Break LGBTQ AA Conference happening in Scottsdale Arizona May 17-19, looks like a lot of fun.
