“Not only is justin a charming, warm, caring, talented, brilliant and engaged human being, he’s also a compelling speaker. I’ve heard Justin present, and I was deeply impressed by his ability to discuss complex issues in a way that is accessible, smart, amusing and moving. Justin has a lot to say, and I hope he never shuts up!”

“That was the most FUN, informative & insightful workshop that I’ve had here on campus in the 8 ½ years I’ve been here and all I’ve been “forced” to participate in. I really wanted to thank you for not only being able to help this office, but I’m incredibly grateful you’re here for our student body too.”

“Now is a critical time to be an LGBTQ and ally leader, as public opinion is shaped. The time we spend as leaders impacts who we are, whom we love, how we choose to live, and how we can live in our communities. These are opportunities to create change to transform our own lives and the lives of those around us. I had the good fortune of becoming friends with justin adkins some years ago, and I learned quickly that he is a powerful leader in inspiring this kind of cultural change. On countless occasions, I have witnessed justin fearlessly fight for the LGBTQ community and set forth to educate those around them, including his antagonists. justin does a masterful job when speaking about this cause that he is so passionate about and it is with great enthusiasm I throw my support behind any venture justin undertake.”
