New Podcast: How Leadership Helps Youth Overcome Prejudice

In a new Youth Speak Out podcast, Billy Ianuzzi, a member of two prominent youth advocacy boards, explains how leadership opportunities can help lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning young people overcome experiences with bullying and prejudice.

Billy was a young teenager when he came out to his family. And for years, he endured their emotional abuse and disapproval before running away to find a safer environment. He ended up at Larkin Street Youth Services in San Francisco, and the support he has gotten there has put him on the path to leadership and enabled him to help other young people like himself.
