Meet Rowan King. Rowan organizes the annual Drag for Diplomas fundraiser for the Thrive with Pride Program at the Dr. Annise Mabry Foundation. Thrive with Pride is Georgia's only nonprofit alternative diploma program for homeless lgbtq youth, sex trafficking survivors, and high school dropouts.

This podcast is a collection of voices from everyday people in the community from urban cities to rural dirt roads reflecting on how #Covid19 impacted their lives and in some cases changed their outlook.
