SpeakOUT with Angela Giampolo, is a monthly segment on LGBTQIA issues and their implications to larger issues that impact us all. We speak about the increase in book banning across the country and her "Caravan of Hope" which will be traveling to rural locations across the country providing mobile legal help for LGBTQIA individuals who don\'t have easy access to legal help.

First, I speak to Jill Perez Gobora, Found of Amy\\u2019s Kisses Foundation whose mission is to provide \\u201cKisses of Opportunity\\u201d in the form of healthy relationship educational resources as well as educational scholarships to students in need. The foundation was created in the memory of educator and Jill\\u2019s sister Amy who was killed along with her two children in a tragic case of domestic violence. The Foundation seeks to remember Amy and her daughter Molly and son Gregory with a foundation that provides educational support for students in need as well as raises awareness about domestic violence. There is a Walk to Remember on May 21 to support the Foundation.
