Plus Olivia Julianna, NYC Pride Rally, White House Pride and more...
Hi John —
We all deserve an ally like Jane Fonda, who has devoted her career to amplifying marginalized voices and communities of color while championing causes like climate justice, gun control, and reproductive rights. We are so honored she is advocating for LGBTQ+ youth and for It Gets Better.
“LGBTQ+ youth are speaking out and fighting back in record numbers. Organizations like It Gets Better are working directly with the LGBTQ+ kids to empower and uplift them, to connect them to the support systems and resources they need to fight for the causes they’re passionate about.”
Join Jane in the fight for LGBTQ+ youth! Plus, read on for other Pride Month highlights, including interviews with activist Olivia Julianna, a call to action from Youth Voice Hailey T., and more.
