The Collaborative

Right now, it is urgent for allies to work with LGBTQ+ youth to push back against hate—with the language they use and the actions they take. That’s because LGBTQ+ individuals are facing increased levels of erasure from public life, with high levels of anti-trans violence, attacks on affirming healthcare, and attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. Only together can we create environments that are welcoming for all. Learn more from our allies at outrightvt.org/blog/defending-lgbtq-youth-from-hate-is-a-community-obligation
