Dear John

By the age of 18, most students will have spent 14% of their waking hours in school. That's a huge chunk of time. Don’t LGBTQ+ students deserve to spend it feeling safe, supported, and with some sense of control over what their lives look like?

We think so. That’s why It Gets Better prioritizes programs that empower LGBTQ+ youth. From school grants and youth ambassadors to online resources, we're paving the way for tomorrow's leaders. And when you support It Gets Better, you're making a real difference too [[link removed]].

This week's newsletter is packed with life-changing projects for LGBTQ+ students, moments of joy, and an essay from a student who says it got better when they built a life worth living.
