“ Through every step of the long, complicated process Debbie always responded to my emails quickly with knowledge and kindness. She gave advice throughout the process and I know that Samara’s transition has been so positive because of how well she prepared me for what was to come! ”

“ Debbie has been crucial in the process, providing contacts, encouragement, information, and follow-up, not because it is her responsibility, but because she truly cares. That is the kind of person I would want advocating and working on my behalf, and I am so grateful to have gotten that! ”
