Wondering what coaching is?

-> A Partnership between the coach & an individual, that leverages their strengths, skills & resources to realize their purpose & success.

The CDC’s Youth Risk Behavior Survey has monitored the wellbeing of America’s high school students since 1991.

Since 2015, it’s been a vital source of data on LGBQ youth. In 2023, it provided the first ever nationally representative sample of transgender teens.

As of this morning, it’s gone.
