If you, someone you know or love, or just someone you know of needs help with the onslaught of anti-LGBTQ+ bills and hatred popping up, know there are groups organized and build to give you the help you need in ensuring your safety or helping to move you to somewhere you are comfortable, safe and around people who care about and love you. You aren't alone, and you never will be.

Last year I made a website for people who want to #volunteer or do good in the world, but may not want or be able to do something in person.
It's a categorized index of ways you can #volunteer your time with a variety of projects.
I made it specifically for people who are struggling with #mentalhealth issues, who may be #disabled or are maybe just overwhelmed at where to start.
I'd love feedback or suggestions for more sites!

This #beautiful #wildcat came into our care after being hit by a car in Paquera, Costa Rica. She was lucky to escape with her life!
After three days of specialist veterinary treatment and close supervision, Moby was ready to return home to the wild!
