Pride should be a time of celebration. Sadly, for many LGBTQ+ young people it isn’t. Our 2025 U.S. National Survey shows this.
Even as we prepare to celebrate Pride month, the weight of anti-LGBTQ+ policies bears down upon our youth — resulting in measurable, negative impacts.
Here’s what we know:
* When asked about how recent LGBTQ+-related policies, laws, and debates affected them, 90% of LGBTQ+ young people said that they caused them stress or anxiety.
* Additionally, nearly 8 in 10 LGBTQ+ young people (78%) said it made them feel unsafe, including 86% of TGNB young people.
* Over 7 in 10 LGBTQ+ young people (76%) said it negatively impacted their mental health, including 83% of TGNB young people.
* Over three in 10 (32%) LGBTQ+ young people said it made them or their family consider moving to a different state, including 38% of TGNB young people.
When policies target identity, young people feel it in their bodies and in their lives. For more on this, visit our blog for a look at more data on how anti-LGBTQ+ policies impact LGBTQ+ young people. ([link removed])

Pride is also what protects us. Even in the face of harmful policies, 78% of LGBTQ+ young people heard supportive language about their identity (including 81% of transgender and nonbinary young people). It makes a difference, and it matters. LGBTQ+ young people in very accepting communities attempted suicide at less than one-third the rate of those in very unaccepting communities.
Support saves lives and acceptance is action.
Our 2025 U.S. National Survey is full of impactful learnings about LGBTQ+ youth. It is made wholly of LGBTQ+ young people speaking for themselves, because they deserve to hold the microphone on the issues affecting them. Have you checked out our National Survey yet? Give it a look and challenge yourself to learn one new thing today. ([link removed])
