Hey John,

LGBTQ+ young people are finding new ways to take care of their mental health, and It Gets Better is here to help. imi (that's eye-me) is a free, digital resource—created by our friends at Hopelab in collaboration with It Gets Better and CenterLink—supports LGBTQ+ youth in navigating stress, exploring their identities, and building resilience, all on their own terms.

With more LGBTQ+ young people than ever seeking mental health support, imi offers an accessible, affirming space [[link removed]] designed specifically for them. And now, It Gets Better has taken over the management and maintenance of imi, reinforcing our commitment to uplifting, empowering, and connecting LGBTQ+ youth worldwide.

Every time you support It Gets Better, you’re directly investing in the mental well-being of queer youth. Your donations ensure that resources like imi remain free [[link removed]], accessible, and continue evolving to meet the needs of the next generation. Because when LGBTQ+ youth have the tools and support they need, they don’t just survive—they thrive. And in today’s climate, making sure queer youth feel seen and supported is more important than ever.

🎨 Queer Chameleon – We collaborated with artist Amee Wilson on Dear Queer Chameleon for National Coming Out Day, but this playful, affirming video [[link removed]] about navigating pronouns and identity in your own time is relevant year-round. We’d love to make more of episodes in this series, so if you like what you see, consider supporting our work. [[link removed]]

📖 Glossary – Inclusive language is ever-evolving, and respect starts with understanding. With public figures and policymakers dismissing trans and gender-nonconforming people, using the right terms is a simple but powerful way to show support. Brush up on LGBTQ+ terminology with our robust glossary. [[link removed]]

🃏 Perfectly Queer: The Game – We have just a few copies left! This card game is designed to spark conversations and help families and allies better support LGBTQ+ youth. It’s also a great way to learn more about yourself in the process. Grab one before they’re gone. [[link removed]]

Stay loud and proud, and thanks for your continued support of LGBTQ+ youth. Chat with you asoon.
