Jen

Jen, a Nebraska native, came out in her late twenties. She grew up in a very Christian family and community without exposure to any gay culture or support networks. When she was 19, she realized that she may have feelings for women, but she didn’t act on them until she was an adult. Jen says that she wishes she had come out earlier, but that now she couldn’t be happier. She has built a beautiful, loving family with her partner, Rho, and has overwhelming support from her family. Her advice to young people is to live their truth, however they may find it.
