‘Pride & Progress Bites' is a P&P mini-series.
We've been releasing the Pride & Progress podcast for 3 years now, and the podcast is built on the belief that sharing a story can start a change. Stories are incredibly powerful - even a short story has the power to start a meaningful change. In each ‘Pride & Progress Bite', we hear from an LGBT+ educator or ally, each sharing a short story of pride & progress from their own school or community.
This week's Pride & Progress Bite comes from the brilliant Cameron Curry (he/they). They joins us at the beginning of Trans Awareness Week to talk about the first time he got his hormone prescription .
