Tara: Tell us a little more about Rainbow Camp and connecting with a nonbinary identity.
Dan: Um so Rainbow Camp is a great place. It's a week long summer camp in August where you can go with a bunch of other queer youth and allies and there -- it's very open to playing around with different names, different pronouns. You pretty much always have your little sticker with your name and pronouns and you change stickers everyday if you want and people respect that and will you know change -- it's very fluid and very open to experimenting and playing around.
Chantale: Yeah. It's a great place to discover who you are.
Tara: Yes.
Chantale: Be more comfortable with who you are.
Tara: Yes.
Chantale: Due to the fact that you see so many people that you can relate to in different ways. But definitely people that Dan could relate to and so that was definitely very helpful.
