Dear Barney Frank,
My name is Linda Morose. I'm writing to you today because i'm doing a project in my college class taught by Professor Monica Poole. My project is called "Be the change" which speaks for itself. We are to find an important group in our community and focus on a particular issue and be the change for them in a positive way.For my project i'm focussing on the LGBT community, specifically an issue with the suicide attempts by these teenagers in this group. Congressman i'm sure you know that statistically that teens in the LGBT community are four times more likely to commit suicide then heterosexual teenagers.
I mean now is the time to be the change for these teens who need guidance in their lives and a good influence to follow.Some of them have now place else to go and that is why they give up and get so low that they just attempt suicide and it happens absolutely and I am a living proof of that fact. So to start I did some community service with my class mate at school and we past out flyers to people out of the school and in side for a few hours and spoke to them about out issue. We also took picture with the people we spoke to see we would remember them and the are located on my school blog.
I will also be talking to a lot of people about attempting to open a after center for these teens so they have some where safe to go after school. And have some seminars etc. for them and that would help them stop feeling so ashamed or confused on their life style. These teens should be able to live their lives in peace because they deserve that.Now I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to read this letter and view my project.
Sincerely,
Linda Morose
