Friend –

Choosing when to come out and to whom is a deeply personal decision that every LGBTQ+ person has the right to make for themselves.

But in the past year, a concerning number of school districts across California have adopted policies requiring school staff to notify parents if a student uses a different name or pronouns. These forced outing policies are part of a nationwide, coordinated attack on trans and nonbinary youth.

We need your help to stop forced outings and defend LGBTQ+ students' right to determine whether and when to come out to their families.

TAKE ACTION <[link removed]>

The SAFETY Act (AB 1955), sponsored by the California Legislative LGBTQ Caucus, would strengthen existing law prohibiting school staff from being required to disclose a student's gender identity, sexual orientation, or gender expression without their consent, unless required by law to protect the student's safety.

Passing the SAFETY Act will send a clear message that all California students deserve to feel safe and supported at school.

Thanks for taking action,
