Showing up for each other can help create change — whether that means organizing against anti-LGBTQ policies, changing hearts and minds through storytelling, or just providing a listening ear.
That’s what community is all about 🧡

Half of trans and nonbinary young people report that their school environment is affirming to their gender identity.
Gender-affirming schools are life-saving, and result in lower rates of suicide amongst LGBTQ students.
We all deserve to feel safe at school 🧡

Always remember that having at least one accepting adult can lower an LGBTQ young person’s odds of suicide risk by 40%.
Be that one adult.

From teachers who create safe spaces for LGBTQ students, to grassroots supporters who chip in whenever they can, we know our community is stronger than ever. Your support shows LGBTQ youth that they always have a place to turn.
Help us stand with LBGTQ youth, every single day 🧡

Traditional Pride Flag
The rainbow flag, also known as the gay pride flag, symbolizes lesbian, gay, bisexual, & transgender (LGBT) pride & LGBT social movements. The colors reflect the diversity of the LGBT community and the spectrum of human sexuality and gender.
