Dr. Rachel Levine promised to work hard for every Pennsylvanian. Yet she made an even more impassioned promise to young transgender people, especially those thinking of killing or hurting themselves.

"What I want to tell those kids is I am there for you. We are here for you," Levine said Friday during a speech at a conference attended by transgender people from all over the United States and a dozen foreign countries. "Please don't harm yourself and please don't despair, because we are there for you."




===================

WOW!  We need more people like her in public office!  Trans Public Officials will help spread public knowledge, change, and acceptance!
