Toronto-based Super Queer/Career Queerdo Mike Smith is a non-binary, harm reduction and sexual health advocate who's not afraid to talk about their past in the work that they do. Mike grew up in a extremely religious Mormon household and came to terms with their sexuality and gender identity under the iron dome of an uncompromising religious culture — even surviving multiple rounds of conversion therapy.
And yet, Mike has found a way to use their experience to illuminate and bridge build, including with their own family and sharing harm reduction and accepting ethos with other faith-based organizations.
