概要

What started as a simple Instagram account to document outdoor adventures quickly evolved into a nationwide movement. In this episode of The Parks Podcasat, host Missy Rentz sits down with Justin Yoder, the founder and executive director of LGBTQ Outdoors.

Justin shares the "happy accident" that led to the creation of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that now spans over 23 states with dozens of ambassadors. They dive deep into the unique barriers minority communities face in nature—from the need for visible representation to the simple, grounding act of "touching grass."

Episode Highlights

  • The Origin Story: How a personal quest for community in Texas grew into a national organization.
  • Breaking Barriers: Why symbols like pride flags and anti-discrimination clauses matter in outdoor spaces.
