I love your work, especially your piece: Not Born This way. I’m a lesbian social work professor at san Jose State University and am writing a manuscript on working with Latinos/as. I have a chapter on the LGBTTQ client/community, and would like to translate your piece and included in the manual. Please advise. You make us proud. Thanks. Best wishes.
