Send us Fan MailAt the end of May, the Seattle LGBTQ+ Commission sent a letter to their mayor asking the city to declare a civil state of emergency in response to the growing number of transgender people and their families fleeing states with escalating anti-trans laws. Families are leaving homes, schools, jobs, churches, and entire support systems behind because remaining where they are no longer feels safe. A study from the Movement Advancement Project and the University of Chicago found that at least 400,000 transgender and gender nonconforming people have moved to another state since November 2024 because of anti-LGBTQ laws or political conditions. For years, many parents of trans kids have been sounding the alarm — telling stories of banned healthcare, hostile school policies, criminalization, fear, isolation, and the exhausting reality of fighting for your child's right to exist openly and safely. What once felt unthinkable is now shaping where families can live, where children can go to school, and whether parents feel they can protect their kids at all. Today In the Den we talk about what it means when LGBTQ+ people become refugees within their own country. What happens to families forced to relocate in search of safety? What responsibilities do affirming cities and states have to those arriving in crisis? And what does it mean for the rest of us witnessing this moment unfold in real time?Special Guest: Chris CuriaChris Curia is Co-Chair of the Seattle LGBTQ Commission, an advisory board that provides guidance and recommendations to City leaders on issues affecting LGBTQ+ communities. Additionally, Chris supervises Crisis Care Responder teams as part of Seattle's Community Assisted Response & Engagement (CARE) Department, the City's third branch of public safety that delivers alternative first response to 911 calls with a mental health nexus. Chris brings years of clinical training and experience as a licensed mental health counselor to these roles, along with a passion for exploring innovative opportunities to prioritize mental healthcare equity and community-centered care for all Seattleites.Special Guest: Jessa DavisJessa Davis (she/her) is Co-Chair of the Seattle LGBTQ Commission and Chair of its Community Outreach & Social Media Committee. She also serves as Board Secretary for Queer Power Alliance (QPA), where she chairs the Advocacy Committee, and as Board Secretary for Whole Washington.

Zootown Swing is a newer Missoula nonprofit built around Lindy Hop, a vintage swing dance that started in Harlem in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Callie describes it as a joyful, social, goofy, partner-based dance that gives people a way to connect for a few minutes at a time through music and movement.The group started hosting dances in Missoula last September, with regular social dances at Free Cycles. What began with a small group of organizers has grown into a steady community of dancers, newcomers, and regulars who show up to learn, practice, and spend time together.This summer, Zootown Swing is bringing the dancing outside with four events at the Caras Park pavilion: June 8, July 6, August 10, and September 14.The first Caras Park dance is Monday, June 8. The evening starts with a beginner lesson at 6:30 p.m., followed by live music from The Jive from 7–9 p.m. The event is free, with donations encouraged to help pay the instructors and the band. No partner is needed, and beginners are absolutely welcome.Callie also talks about how approachable Lindy Hop can be. You do not need to know fancy spins or complicated moves to start. A simple six-count basic can get you moving with the music, and the whole point is to have fun, connect with a partner, and enjoy the moment.The conversation also gets into Callie's background, from growing up near Seattle and skiing Stevens Pass to coaching young skiers with the Missoula Ski Education Foundation. Like a lot of good Missoula stories, this one includes skiing, music, community, a nonprofit, and someone deciding to build the thing they wanted to see in town.If you have ever thought about trying swing dancing, this is a pretty easy way in: show up at Caras Park, take the beginner lesson, listen to the band, and see what happens.The Zootown Swing summer series begins Monday, June 8 at Caras Park. Lesson at 6:30 p.m. Live music from The Jive from 7–9 p.m.Learn more and follow along with Zootown Swing on Instagram at @zootownswing.

The half marathon still had a few spots open, and the weekend includes plenty beyond the 26.2-mile race: the Friday night Beer Run, Runner Expo at Caras Park, Tony Banovich 5K, Kids Marathon, half marathon, and the downtown finish that makes race weekend such a visible part of summer in Missoula.We covered what runners can expect, what Missoulians should know, and how the weekend comes together behind the scenes. That includes the course, shuttle information, road impacts, volunteer needs, and the community support that has helped build the Missoula Marathon into one of the signature events of the year.The full marathon starts in Frenchtown and comes toward Missoula along Mullan Road before continuing through areas including Kona Ranch, Big Flat, River Pines, Maclay Bridge, Target Range, the Slant Streets, and toward the University/downtown finish. The half marathon starts near Blue Mountain and joins the marathon course near Maclay Bridge.Runners are coming from all 50 states and 11 countries this year, which says a lot about both the race and Missoula's reputation as a place people want to visit, run, explore, and experience.Trisha also shared more about the marathon's long-running partnership with Youth Homes and the Run 4 Kids team, which is on track to raise $100,000 this year in support of local youth services.And for anyone who wants to be part of marathon weekend without running, Run Wild Missoula is still looking for volunteers, especially course monitors. Course monitors help keep runners safe, support the flow of the event, cheer people on, and help race morning run smoothly. This year, thanks to Logjam Presents, course monitors will also receive a free ticket to a KettleHouse Amphitheater show.The full conversation is below, with more on race weekend, volunteer opportunities, course information, the Beer Run, Youth Homes, and what makes the Missoula Marathon such a big part of summer in Missoula.Learn more, register, volunteer, or find race weekend details at MissoulaMarathon.org.

Join Kosta and his guest: Margo Dirkson, Department Coordinator for the Office of Access, Belonging, and Community Outreach at Tennessee Tech University. In this episode: In 2024, TTU launched the office of Access, Belonging, and Community Outreach, where you currently serve as the Department Coordinator. Will you tell us about the office and how it serves students? You and Dr. Robert Owens built this office from the ground up. Most faculty never get to design a cabinet-level office from scratch. How do you know when you're getting it right? Belonging is a buzzword in higher education and I feel like sometimes it loses its meaning. Tech enrolls first-generation students, students from rural Tennessee, international students, and students whose families have been in the Upper Cumberland for generations all in the same residence hall. What does belonging actually mean at a place like TTU?Find out more about TN Tech's Office of Access, Belonging and Community Outreach:https://www.tntech.edu/news/releases/24-25/tech-launches-new-office-of-access-belonging-and-community-outreach.phpFind out more about TN Tech: https://www.tntech.eduBetter Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is a product of Morgan Franklin Media and recorded in Cookeville, TN.This episode of Better Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is made possible by our partners at Aspire Barber and Beauty Academy.Find out more about Aspire Barber and Beauty Academy:https://aspirebarberandbeauty.com

Strong therapy starts with strong support, and that begins with the parent.I'm joined by Khaliah Moody, and this conversation really stayed with me. We talk about what it truly looks like to support families in a meaningful way, especially when life outside of sessions includes real challenges like poverty, housing instability, and stress. Khaliah shares how her background in social work shaped the way she leads her clinic and supports both clients and staff. One of the biggest takeaways is that therapy cannot thrive if the parent is overwhelmed and unsupported. We have to meet families where they are, build real relationships, and focus on connection before intervention.We also get into staff retention, building a positive team culture, and how community partnerships can extend impact far beyond traditional services. This is a powerful reminder that compassionate care is both clinical and human.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Why parent support is the foundation of effective therapyHow to build trust and connection with familiesCreative ways to support and retain your teamMentioned In This Episode:Steady Strides Behavior SolutionsKhaliah Moody on LinkedInEarn CEUs with a community of peers.
