Hey, John —

“These laws are not ‘protecting girls.’ They're hurting girls. Transgender girls are girls. Science supports that transgender people are valid and you should to. Let us play.” - Youth Voices member Elliot, 15, quoted in the Western Standard about Texas' attempts to ban trans athletes in college sports.

Elliot is an exceptional kid. They're one of many exceptional kids we work with every day at the It Gets Better Project. And as frustrating as these relentless attacks against LGBTQ+ young people continue to be, kids like Elliot remind us that the work we do to uplift and empower LGBTQ+ youth is vitally important.

Thank you for supporting our efforts [[link removed]] to help make it better. Read on to find out some of the exciting things we've been up to over the last month.
