We’ve all seen the T-shirts, the articles and the splash on the Internet.  “It Gets Better” is the new buzz.  Spurred after a dramatic upsurge in youth LGBTQI suicides, Dan Savage, a well-known gay advice columnist, launched this group to offer positive messages and hope to LGBTQI young adults and teens.  But is this campaign reaching the double minority of disabled queer youth? We present two perspectives tomorrow, Friday, at 2:30 pm.  A young adult and an older adult bridge the gap and discuss their experiences.  Leah Gardner and Adrienne Lauby host.  Listen at 94.1 fm or at www.kpfa.org.
